Adam's Polishes and Junkman Rock!!!

I ordered my kit about a week ago. I got the PC, Machine Polish, Machine Wax, Clay Bar, Americana Wax, VRT, Detail Spray, Leather Conditioner, and a few others. I clay barred first, and can't believe how much shit came off a brand new car! The plastic baggie test tells all. The PC was really a breeze to use. It came from Adams with the 5" backing plate, ready to go. they even colored with the red marker to see the actual spin. Out comes the PC. Machine polish first with the white pad. Machine wax with black pad, then a coat of Americana by hand. I got the confidence to do this, by watching all Junkman's videos. My car is so frickin' shiny, it's unbelievable! If you order, don't forget to enter JUNKMAN at checkout to get a 10% discount. I owe a big thank you to Junkman, for taking time to do all the videos, for guys like me that have no clue about detailing, other than, wax on, wax off. I am an Adam's customer for life! Bye bye Meguiar's.....

I made the switch to Adam's about a year ago and have been much happier detailing my car ever since.

Welcome to the Adam's clan.

Wait until you need to call customer service. They are by far the most customer service oriented company I have ever purchased from. Ashley is awesome!

Yeah, she was awesome on the phone with a Noob like me!
I'm not quite sure what I've accomplished with the FMW, and the Americana. I put em' both on after the polish. Can't hurt...

I'm well over $1500 in products between microfibers and all the goodies! I check their forums daily for the daily special.. It usually ends up in a 30-50$ a week expense. So worth it!

I will be holding mass to bless you poor souls!

It truly is refreshing to be able to do things to your paint that you would have normally paid someone else to screw up! Welcome to the land of detailing, where things are always done to your satisfaction because YOU do it. Ain't it a great feeling?
