JARblue · 09-23-2013, 03:11 PM

Received my Adam's package of Super VRT, Deep Wheel Cleaner, and Glass Cleaner w/ glass towel. I'm looking forward to using and reviewing all three products

Mt Tam I am · 09-23-2013, 03:46 PM

I cleaned out all my track day things, and have yet to return the spare tire, numbers, etc. Just the floor mats have been returned. I am saving the rest for this evening.

TreeSemdyZee · 09-23-2013, 07:23 PM

Picked up Carbon Signal Type N spoiler from a friend who was parting out and selling locally.

Never thought I needed more wing until I test fitted it, its beautiful and a perfect compliment. I love the slight duckbill...I'll probably install it this week...

Test fit

I know how that feels. My z was at the body shop to get the side door panel replaced after a minor accident. I was without it for like 10 days. My loaner car....a Nissan Rogue.

When I got my z back though it was like driving a brand new car fresh off the lot

dAvenue · 09-23-2013, 10:25 PM

Just ordered the Stillen CC Headers.

I actually found some of this still hidden at the back of a shelf in my garage. It worked very well (no streaks) with very cheap glass towels that leave all sort of streaks when using Windex. Since the windows are clean, I don't have reason yet to use the Adam's Glass Cleaner (I'm sure it's quality) or the glass towel (I'm looking forward to having a nice, new one) that came with it.

Dressed all the rubber and exterior trim with Adam's Super VRT. After 2.5 years and over 40K miles, everything looks almost new again. It is exactly the result I was hoping for after hearing the hype.

The way it looks on the tires is perfect IMO. I have some Meguiar's Hot Shine that I've used before, but I stopped using it because it was way too glossy for my taste. This is much more of a satin finish. I love that it doesn't make the tires look like they are dressed; it makes them look like they are brand new. I can also confirm no sling at all. If I had to guess, people that get sling want more shine and are applying a heavier coat which doesn't really work. If you want lots of gloss, there are other products out there that will give you your desired look.

I also briefly tested the Adam's Deep Wheel Cleaner on my wife's Acura. It was still dawn this morning, so I couldn't really see much in the way of color change. I was duly impressed at the amount of grime it removed without any agitation. I will have to give it a more thorough test some other time. The smell is a little powerful, but it smells almost delicious (like a mix of candy and cough syrup).

Yeah i was impressed as well with the Deep Wheel Cleaner. It definitely has a potent smell. I will have to give the Super VRT a shot.

Sounds good Jar. To bad Adam's is still on my banned company list.
