In love with Adams and i only tried one thing.

Yesterday I went to a dealer in Kentucky and purchased $70 worth of Adam's products (no polishes or waxes because I didn't have the extra money for a PC and I don't even want to attempt to polish by hand.) The guy gave me a good deal because he is moving out his older stock to buy some new stock. Today I went to a dealership in Cincinnati that sells griots and I purchased a foam sprayer. I came home and I mixed Adam's car shampoo with water in the gun. I didn't think that there would be much of a difference between their car wash and the ICE car wash that I use to use. I started spraying it and notice that it stuck really good (and it smelled good haha). All I did was the a foam wash tonight because I didn't have much time for daylight. This stuff works amazingly. It is way better than any other car wash that I have ever used. I am planning on using the other products on Monday, but I just felt that I should post what I thought for the rest of you doubters out there. Do not keep doubting and wasting time. Pull the trigger and order the stuff now. lol

Adam's shampoo foams much better than anything else on the market. I've tried just about all of them.

Wait til' you get your hands on the prototype drying towel I've been playing with!

I wish I had a job. I would stock up on Adam's products lol. I'm only 17 and I'm starting school next week (senior year woo). But another thing is I have a girlfriend. Alot of the money that I make doing summer jobs and stuff goes to her. I had over $200 saved up for car stuff but I decided to get her a ring. But it will all be alright lol. Shes worth more to me than my car and thats saying alot. I would love to get a PC with some swirl remover but I just can't get enough to buy the PC :S

Yea, I just wish there was detailing clinic around here so I could talk my dad into buying some. He doesn't like ordering anything unless he is able to see it in action in person. I told him that I would clean up our 73 Camaro also but he said that its too much...... I was like dad 30 thousand dollar car compared to around $500 to clean it up for a long time and protect it

Check out the Junkman's Video series you can see a good portion of Adam's goodies hard at work. AJ does an awesome job of showing off the products.

Yea I tried showing him those but he wants to see it in person. (He doesn't think there is a difference.) I only live like 2 hours away from the Junkman. I didn't know if he had anymore clinics coming up

^ A good detailer and good detailing supplies are worth their price by far.

Stepping up from over-the-counter products to the professional / hobbyist / enthusiast market will certainly make a nice difference. Product's like those sold by Adam's Polishes are specifically designed for users who are looking for specialized products to get specialized results. There's a reason they offer a wide-range of products without having a bunch of the same thing - everything they sell is made to be the best product of that type: that's the simple goal.


Hopefully you'll be able to take the plunge and get some good stuff to truly transform the cars sooner than later. Clay, clay lube, sealant, metal polish, grit guards, and a bunch of microber towels are the key ingredients to start the move from looking "good" to better-than-new.

Well, keep trying, and drop some hints for Christmas, birthday, graduation, etc.

You could always just load up the car with a few friends and come see me. You don't have to wait for a clinic, you can have your very own. Just make sure that you all have enough money between everyone to feed me. I'm a growing, country boy.
