New polishes??

[skysharker1]

Hello everyone!! I just registered for this forum but have used Adam's for quite a while.  I'm still stuck in the 2011 year when I initially ordered my Adam's Essentials Kit Complete Starter Detailing Kit in April of 2011. At that time, I used the 3 pads (Orange, White and Black) which corresponded with the Swirl & Haze Remover, Fine Machine Polish and Machine Super Wax, in that order (as you can see in the pic below).  I just got my new 2016 Camaro and I'm looking to keep her sharp and car show ready like my previous Camaro.  I see that things have changed, so I'm wondering if I can get a heads up to what the new polishes/waxes are and in what order/color they are used.  I use a Porter Cable polisher when I do my car.

 

Thank you in advance.

Welcome, I have heard good and bad results from the old product still being viable. Cant hurt to try, but the new stuff is lights out above the previous gen products.

Hey folks! I'm on the Adam's site and can't seem to find anything where I am able to purchase the Correction, Polishing, Paint Sealant and the three pads as a kit. Is that available??

[Beemer]

Call them tomorrow and I'll bet they will put something together for you.

Hey Marco. On the website go shop, then exterior, then polishes for the polishes

 

And shop, accessories, pads and applicators for the pads

Thanks! I seen that, but I was looking for just one package that would include the 3 bottles with the 3 pads. If I have to buy separately, I will; plus I will need to get the pads in 6" since I have a Porter Cable with the 6" disc.

I hear you on having old product laying around. I dug out my old stuff, that I assume is pre 2008. I have swirl/haze, machine super wax, and a few others that are no longer around. Even my detail spray looks sad. So I got a few MB in the last 2 specials and have basically got all new stuff that is the update to all my old stuff. I am going to try out the old stuff on my Tundra that is going to be a huge project anyways. I figure I might as well give it a go.

Awesome! I see that the VRT is now under wheels/tires, and called Super VRT. Can it still be used in the interior, or has that part been replaced by the Interior Retailer. I see that it leaves a factory matte finish, nothing that'll leave a shine?

[red94chev]

Total Interior Detailer is great inside and does just what you're saying.  You can also use the Leather Conditioner for just a little more shine.  VRT is geared more towards tires and exterior plastic/rubber surfaces.

[skysharker1]

Oh ok, cause I used to use the VRT on the interior as well, and I loved the shine that it left behind.

You'll be fine with doing this.  I asked about this not long ago and it seems to be a personal preference:

The LC leaves a nice shine on interior plastics, and the heavenly scent alone is worth using it regularly!

Thanks everyone for your input. I believe I already know what I am going to get.
