Y2K_SS Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Just wanted to say hi. I have been an Adam's Products stalker for years and have always wanted to get some of their products. Now I finally have a ride worthy of them. Just picked up my new ride May 30th and the same day placed my first Adam's order which just arrived today.

Chadley Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Welcome to the forum!! NIce ride and a nice starter Kit but your gonna need a car shampoo, a drying towel, and some microfiber towels if you don't already have them. You don't want to use just any soap to wash a nice ride like that. Y2K_SS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2K_SS Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 Yup going to order a foam gun & car shampoo, ultra plush drying towel, some single soft microfibers, and a perfect interior kit next I think. I have some cheaper micro fiber towels but it's time to get some quality ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falcaineer Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Welcome to the addiction, Rob! Sweet car! I considered the Camaro back in the day, but went with a 96 Firebird, also in bright red with t-tops (I preferred the pop-up headlights). LOVED that car. Wish I had kept it, so maybe some day I'll follow your lead and get another like it. Post pics when you're done adding more shine!

rkj4243 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Welcome Rob! Great looking Gen 4 and good start to your Adam's products! SE Michigan here, although I do get up your way on occasion too! Be sure to check out the Adam's videos here and on YouTube for the products and processes used to make that red "POP" Y2K_SS and ocdrifter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2K_SS Posted June 9, 2017 Author Share Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) Thanks for all the welcomes and the tips. I have a bunch of stuff coming for it and then I will get to the cleaning/polishing stage. I ordered 2 large mystery boxes today, maybe some Americana and paint sealant will be in them.

Y2K_SS Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 Finally getting started on it. I washed it down with some dawn dish soap to strip it as much as I could. Just finished the clay process. Here's a picture after just doing the top of the hood scoop. Impressive, and sad all at the same time. 8675309'SS and Thorsager 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8675309'SS Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 That amount of stuff must equate to some noticeable weight reduction. It's going to go even faster now. Y2K_SS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2K_SS Posted June 15, 2017 Author Share Posted June 15, 2017 Well here's the results of 6 hours of cleaning, machine polishing and waxing. Not bad for 17 years old! frogmats, Mariner and 8675309'SS 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chonke Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Looks like its right off the dealership! Some BMR springs and Konis would help it out with the stance Y2K_SS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
