Default Adam's Products, WOW

Today was the day to try my new Car Wash Trio. All I can say is WOW. This stuff is great!!! It is truly amazing how using the right product does help. Besides smelling good, the car looks amazing. I was a little bummed when I snagged the drying towel on the emblem but other than that, very nice! I do think I will order another towel as it would be easier to dry the car with two.

My next investment is the complete D/A Car Polish Kit. I’m hoping to order this next week. Maybe the clay bar will be added to the kit this week as mentioned on Adam’s forum. This would seal the deal.

Careful Oscar, you're about to become addicted. It's a hard habit to break and your wallet will hate you for it!

QFT.. Before I got the Z, I never thought about clearcoat, or swirls, or anything like that, and always went through the automatic car wash.

Now.... Ohhhhh, I notice EVERY little scratch and swirl. Washing by hand is mandatory now. Almost like I'm a slave to the Z.

Damn Adam's polishes! Hate it when ppl touch my car to "feel" the paint or wipe dust off cuz they think they're helping?

I wish they knew how long it takes to remove something like that. I really need to order the focus pads because the PC takes way too long to correct deeper clear coat scratches or scratches that are located in awkward positions due to the curve of the body panel, etc.

I'm already addicted! While at the dealer today, everyone was staring at the car. You have to love this!!! I hope to be placing my next order later this week. Next week I'm on vacation and plan to spend a day detailing.

Sadly, I think you might be right. I just got in an order or waterless wash from Adams today. HAD to try it out.. looks FANTASTIC! The pretty Oklahoma sunsets in the reflection of the hood are awesome.

Adam's could not be more addicting.. scary kinda.. makes you look at the entire catalog to see what else they have.. and what it can do. And they always smell nice to boot.. you discount how much that would make a difference, but if you're spending time with your car busting *** on it.. kinda cool that they smell good..

And Adam is a hell of a guy.. and a true auto enthusiast, genuine and a stand up guy.. both with the products he's developed, and just in general..

Yea, and that Dylan guy -what a douche!! LOL

Hey Josh, we need another demo day there at the shop... long overdue!! Talked to Kyle briefly but that fool is all over the map so pinning him down for something isn't easy.

I really think our next purchase for the Z will be a PC detailing kit. I'm kind of convinced, plus it's a good deal.

But honest question: as a long-time Meguiar's user (of pretty much every consumer and professional product they make), would you consider Adam's equivalent or better? And by that, is it easier for me as a personal, at-home user to get the same results in less time and/or less effort?

If so, I'm sold. I really like the idea of a simplistic, yet comprehensive product line.
