DanFish Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Hey everyone! This is my first time posting on the board but I've been lurking for awhile haha Just got my products in the mail Yesterday, some SHR, Revive along with some hand applicators and APC with some other goodies Got a chance to try them out Today and boy was I impressed! Not going to lie the car was not in terrible condition to begin with but there were enough swirls to annoy me! But I am proud to say I will definitely be a life customer of Adams! Here's some pictures before: I don't know what caused the etching on the hood, but it's rather deep. And the afters, about 3 hours of hand polishing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug123 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Welcome Dan! That etching on your hood is probably the results of a bird 'decoration'. It is pretty corrosive stuff. I carry a microfiber towel and a mini DS with me to get those fast when they occur. Also, when you get 'decorated', remember that birds eat a lot of grit, so ~gently~ wipe the bird poo off of the finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
