So I have been an adams user for about two years now and I obviously have the bug, no question about it. As I got more into I joined the forums, researched more, and am slowly gathering myself to buy a paint correction kit and finally make my way into correcting and doing a full detail. I have done the whole decon wash, clay, seal, wax, and polish or a G&G wash numerous times so my paint has been well protected for the past two years, especially because I don't drive the truck in the winter. I am a college student and a few weeks ago I took the truck out of storage and brought it down to school. As I posted in the "Detail Write up" section, I had done a good wash and guard and gloss along with a few other things to protect the truck for the 3 week stay in the school parking lot outside. With all this being said here are a few things I have noticed and have some questions on:
-Where I applied VRT, it looks as if it has streaked down and onto the paint, like under my door handles, is this from applying too much product?
- After a claying, washing, and sealing the glass properly, i must say I am not overly impressed with the way the water runs off the windshield. The truck sat for about a week before i drove it in the rain, but when i did, its not like it was flying off my windshield or anything, and when I used my wipers, they left some water behind. Are my wipers bad? What did I do wrong?
-And lastly, after the rain, I did not get much beading and it almost felt like the water was just kind of sitting on my paint (if that makes any sense)
I am not posting this post to bash on these products, I absolutely love them and will forever be an adams user, I am posting just wondering what I did wrong. I usually haven't seen results like this after a wash. Could it be that the truck just sits outside and doesn't move often? I do not drive it often at school but I do go and visit it almost every day lol, just to make sure no one has touched it or messed with it. You could say I'm a little OCD but I'm sure a lot of you understand.
