After seeing pictures of DP's car looking like candy and hearing his praises for Adam's Polishes, I hit the internet and read up on them. After reading alot of positive reviews on their products, I ordered myself the Complete Detailing Kit off of their website. It included a Porter Cable Polisher, Pads, Swirl and Haze Remover, Fine Polish and Machine Wax. Plus, Spray detailer and All Purpose Cleaner.
Today, I finally got in the garage and went to work cleaning up the car. I have never used any type of machine polisher before and the process was very easy and painless. Needless to say, the car turned out great. Really brought back the shine and mirror like finish to the paint. Pictures are below. If you ever pondered Adam's products and wondered if they are worth the money, I say, "yes!"
So again, thanks DP and Adam's.

 

Holy ****! Your car looks amazing.

I love a clean black car, all polished up.

I think I might have to order me that kit. Mine has swirls from the previous owner always going through car washes with it.

Do you have a link of what you ordered.

Thanks

 

Thanks man, I am really pleased with how it turned out. The link to the kit I bought is here. They have a bunch of other stuff too.

 

oh no not another Adam's addict lol....i am more then happy to help.....once you start buying it is hard not to get everything they sell....which i do and have now started ordering by the gallon.....if you can swing it you need to try out their Americana paste wax.....that stuff is simply amazing!

 

I really need to get me one of those!!! I'm "that guy" taking his car to the auto wash......and making his black car look like **** when it's sunny.

 

i have a bunch of swirl. did you have any and if so did this stuff help?

 

One more reason for me to hurry up and but my PC (Porter Cable) kit from adams.

Car came out very nice. How would you rate difficulty with your first PC use?

 

if you would like some before and after's of what Adam's and a PC can do let me know and ill post em up

it is very easy to use...just gettin good results is what takes time and patience...i watched a lot of videos from junkman on youtube on how to use it and it helped a ton.

 

oh hell i post em up cuz i like to show off lol

before









after

 

holy mother of swirl marks.... it looks great.

 

Difficulty is very low. The trick I found was to take my time on the trunk to figure out how many passes to make and how much pressure to apply with each pad & polish. Once I had the trunk figured out, the rest of the car was a breeze. It was my first try with a PC and if I can make it come out great than I am sure anyone can!

 

now you just need to get the Flex 3401 and you will be really amazed lol

 

hey DP, in the 6th picture down is that your dirtbike mountain bike?

 

nope...its my 3 year old son's bike....pretty sweet aint it lol

 

Derek, learning the ways of the Jedi shine well you are!

 

thanks AJ! i would consider you Yoda (teacher) and myself Hans Solo (student) lol

 

yes very sweet for sure, i always wanted one when i was younger.

 

The last time I tried a "high dollar" polishing kit was ZAINO...anyone here tried that stuff? Made my cars shine like no other polish I've tried, but the application was quite time consuming (3-4 steps)...

I currently use the Turtle Wax ICE polish & quick detailer...looks great on a Silver car. It is very easy to use & inexpensive in comparison...I constantly get comments like "dude, do you wash your car every day??", or "damn, that silver paint looks smooth"...

BTW - DP, your paint looks like Glass

 

Turtle Wax products are not even close to the class of product that Zaino is. I use to use Zaino and like you, I found it time consuming. That's why I started using Adam's. I can get the same shine in half the time. Turtle Wax, nor any other OTC product can't come close to making my paint look this good:

 

took the words right out of my mouth....
