Standeloach Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Greetings. I am the proud owner of a new 2015 Camaro. I really want to keep the gloss black finish looking new and glossy. I live in an apartment complex without garages and need all the help I can get. Dan@Adams and Enigmatic Soul 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG13 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Welcome Stan! You have come to the right place. Post up some pics when you have time. There are a lot of good people with a lot of good information here. Living in an apartment complex you may want to check out Adam's RW or WW.

rkj4243 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Welcome Stan, As mentioned Rinseless or Waterless Wash will keep it clean, but Liquid Paint Sealant, H2O Gloss & guard, and other products will keep it shiny and protected.

Guest washemup Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 (edited) Welcome Stan, I too live in NC and own a 2012 2SS Camaro, I live in a small apartment complex as well with no garage. Keeping it looking good can be done! Here's a shot of mine from last summer with only Adams products used! Well the pic came out the wrong size! Just click on it for the right size, lol.

Dan@Adams Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Hi Stan, thank you for signing up on the forum! As you can see, we're a very friendly group around here, so don't ever feel hesitant to ask any questions, even if you think they may have been asked several times before. Rinseless Wash, Waterless Wash, and Liquid Paint Sealant and HGG are all excellent suggestions for cleaning and protecting your Camaro, but for dark colored vehicles, I like to recommend our Americana Shine Kit or Patriot Shine Kit on top of the sealant to offer even more shine to get that deep wet look to the paint. The Brilliant Glaze included in those two kits is a killer way to add a ton of shine and help to temporarily hide some of those imperfections that you may not have time to fully polish out, especially if you are in an apartment environment where you don't have easy access to do any type of machine polishing.

Mazzdog Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Well come from North Carolina! I'm in Durham. I love my Adams products! Lots of good help here. If you have any questions just ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Standeloach Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 This is my ride. Hope to keep it this glossy if not more. I already ordered a bunch of stuff from here and can't wait to try it out. I was thinking of layering the paint sealant, then glaze and top it off with buttery wax. And use the H2O G and G once every 2 weeks or so. Sound right? Thorsager 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats exactly what I did today, since Im also within an apartment complex and cant really get into machine washing nor just even having access to a hose , but hey I do have my 2 buckets on the ready! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
