0 mc2hill Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Looks great! I use that combo on garage queens and show cars, and the owners are blown away by the shine. Dan@Adams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 PHOKUS Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Americana + BG is probably the best combination of products I have ever used. Both incredibly easy on and off, and the shine is so intense it almost defies logic. Oh, and the combination of scents between the two are perhaps my favorite of all Adam's products.

0 Lee Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I did Americana and Brilliant glaze on my brothers white 328i this weekend and on Monday he told me that he had two different people from work ask him when he got a new car lol. wely324 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tmevilsizor Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Sorry to resurrect this thread... But if you guys chose to use G&G would you apply it before the glaze, after the Americana, or is there a benefit from both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 tmevilsizor Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 I would assume use the G&G first since it's a sealant? I agree, but would there be any benefit to using the G&G over the Americana? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 LT1xL82 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 I agree, but would there be any benefit to using the G&G over the Americana? Yes. Using G&G after every several washes will add some protection and shine to a vehicle with Americana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the videos I've seen, you simply apply it to a panel and the wipe off. That's how I apply/remove Brilliant Glaze. With the Americana, I apply it to several body panels, sometimes half the car, before I wipe it off. PHOKUS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allowing Americana to cure for 30-60 minutes maximizes its durability, but it's not required to get excellent performance. Tyler@Adams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 GST Auto Detail Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 Looks great. The silver and pewter paint is hard to make "pop", but I've always had the best results using Brilliant Glaze and Americana. I've tried quite a few different products, but I'm a life-long Adams man now. Kickerz71 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
