WretchedSS Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 so last night I started my new Adams kit, started out with the shampoo damn that stuff smells amazing and cleans awesome. The clay bar... Just wow, my truck is pretty rough said the clay bar. The results were amazing. I only started the front end and I can feel a huge difference... My truck has never recieved this kind of treatment. Pix to follow later on once I get a little farther in the kit. Thanks Adam and dylan.

jtmarine02 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 What do the kits run? What did you get?, what did it come with? How much? Just wanted to get a bit more informed on the matter. so last night I started my new Adams kit, started out with the shampoo damn that stuff smells amazing and cleans awesome. The clay bar...

Just wanted to get a bit more informed on the matter. There is a huge range in price for kits and it depends on what exactly you want to do, and how perfect you want your paint Check Out There Website http://www.adamspolishes.com/ They are expensive, but you get what you pay for. Adams is the best product out there Here is a good Starter Kit Starter Porter Cable Kit Or if you dont feel like going for a Machine polisher and dont want to spend that kinda money this is a good hand kit to start with Premium Hand Polish and Wax Kit Edited June 23, 2011 by diggerdan11 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS Silv Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 It took awhile to convince me to change from Zaino, but it was WELL worth it. Adams FTW!! Swirl & Haze Remover, Fine Machine Polish, and 1 coat of Americana. I wish I would have took a pic with the Briliant Glaze. I have never seen paint pop and shine like it does with Brilliant Glaze.

WretchedSS Posted June 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 I'd assume proper paint job. Years of practice, and the right tools with the right technique. Browse the Adamspolishes.com forums and read some peoples posts. You can improve your polishing skills a tons by the useful information put out there.

Practice makes perfect, I've been at this a looooooooooooooooooong time. Other things to understand you MUST have a machine of some sort to polish... there is no way to put a decent, swirl free, shine on paint without some sort of polisher. Choose quality products and tools that not only work well, but make the job easier. Be patient. Paint correction is not for people seeking instant gratification... it takes time. Heres another one I did... this car was in the running for AMBR at the Grand National Roadster Show... painter did a terrible job finishing the car, I did the entire detail in an exhibition hall with hundreds of onlookers... all of them would come back and comment on how I'd been working on the car for hours - my response: "Time invested = Quality of the end result. There are no short cuts" Before - the entire car pretty much looked like this: After a few passes using the Flex 3401 with Swirl & Haze Removerfollowed by Fine Machine Polish: At that point I had my process defined and did the rest of the car working one panel at a time: End result after the car was treated to a coat of Americana Paste Wax: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
