Thanks for everyone's input. I'm going to close this thread and will be doing private investigation/messaging and resolve the tension that I'm seeing.
I am a huge Adams fan. Believe me or not, as I launched the "Detailing section" here on the forum, I myself invited Adams to come here. Why? because I like Adams products. I pretty much have 75% of their product including the detailing cart (which means I DO own 25% of "other" brand). Adams is GREAT place to start and I have recommended to MANY automotive and Z enthusiast. Their products are color coded and very easy to use. Actually ANYONE that came up to me (after seeing my car or in my friend circle), I have 100% recommended Adams because you CAN'T mess up with adams. It's a full system that dummy proof and perfect for beginner. BUT should you stick with Adams forever? Of course not. if you feel that Adams is working slow (as many Adams products are foolproof as many novices start with Adams kit and they MAY need 3-5 more extra passes), you are welcome to slowly move to more aggressive products and we both know what these products are. I personally always felt certain satisfaction and peace of mind using Adams products that I never "felt" with "other" brands. I always felt like "what if" this "other product" is too aggressive, what if this (other stuff) is gonna burn my clearcoat, what if this (other product) is less quality or shiner than Adams -- thoughts like this ALWAYS come to my mind as I use other products.
Matt, aka bigaudiofanat, I know him personally. A really nice guy and probably one of only local forum member that I'm close with. However, that doesn't mean that I'll side with him or anything. I want to hear his point of view and where he is coming from. I agree on some of his points but I disagree with some.
Junk man, you are a GOD given gift to detailing! I will say I have watched every single video of yours and what you've taught me, no one in world can teach that. Till this day, I still follow some of your classic technique and people still go "wow, that was cool". So, for everything you've done for the Detailing world and novices like us, we bow down and thank you
. I do want to get this issue/tension resolved outside public thread/post as it's not helping you or me or Adams.
I'm going to close this here and follow on this privately. Nothing good can come out of publicly attacking each other here. I thank you for your patience.
