So what makes Adams so good compared to other products ?

 

  • 110% guarantee. if your not satisfied they will refund your money plus an extra 10%

     

  • the best customer service i've ever experienced. they really work with the customer to make everything right.

     

  • they have a forum dedicated to customers with questions and their employees, including Adam himself are very active on it answering people's questions.

     

  • they really emphasize on paint correction and maintaining swirl free paint, you want to remove swirls and scratches in the clear coat, not just cover them up with fillers so they reappear a month or 2 down the road like other products do.

     

  • all products they sell are quality Made in the USA. only exception to that is microfibers which come from Korea, NOT China, and its premium 80/20 microfibers. and clay bar which is patented by ClayMagic, but they give you a big 200mg chunk of it in a resealable container.

     

  • the Detail Spray is hands down the best spray i've ever used to give a clean ride that "just waxed" look.

     

  • the Revive Polish is the best hand polish i've ever used, hands down. i never really messed with machine polishing until after using Adam's products so i don't know much about other brands on that end.

     

  • Invisible Undercarriage Spray will make your wheel wells "disappear"

     

  • Americana Paste Wax is the best carnuaba wax i've ever used. makes your car look dripping wet! i've tried meg's and mother's in the past and they just don't compare AT ALL! one tub of it will last you about 2 years!

     

  • Super VRT tire dressing is like everything else, BETTER than the competition. its not silicone based like other brands which clog the pores of rubber, causing tires to dry rot faster and leaving an ugly brown residue. it gets absorbed into the rubber and nourishes it to an amazing luster. its also water resistant.

     

  • the new Quick Sealant is probably the most revolutionary new product on the market. its applied by hand from an aeresol can and evened out on the surface with an applicator pad. takes about 15 minutes to apply to an entire car, and cures to the paint extremely fast.

     

 

but don't just take my word for it, visit their website, watch their instructional videos, read their customer testimonials and product descriptions

been checking it out, alot of info to take in! I do think i am going to give it a try even tho i have never seen *show stopping" white paint

No matter what product you do end up using MAKE SURE THAT YOU CLAY BAR!!. This makes a world of difference especially on a white vehicle. I'm on my 3rd white vehicle and the only way I can get a superior detail job is if I clay bar. Or else you see every single little piece of dibris that is sitting in the clear coat. Wash > Clay Bar> Wash > Wax Products (whatever system you end up using).

100% agree!

 

on white paint its also good to use an iron remover type product. its one of the only products i have that isn't Adam's

Wgats the clay bar all about??

 

 

A clay bar kit will come with a detail spray and a bar of clay. You spray a portion of the vehicle, and rub the clay over it. It will pull out all contaminents in the clear coat. Anything really.

 

Also, it will feel smooth as can be just after the clay bar. It also provides the best base to apply polishes and waxes. Also makes it way easier to apply polishes and waxes, and take them off.

Your final shine is gonna be as good as your prep work is! Make sure that the surface is smooth bye using a clay bar! If there's swirls and scratches in the paint, that will also kill the shine! The easy and fastest way for me to get a great shine is to wash, clay and then use the Meguiars DA Microfiber Correction System! This is an easy two stepper that uses a compound in the first step and a polish/wax in step number two! If your car is not in bad shape, you can use step two as a one stepper!

I usually do it spring and fall but I could probably get away with just spring. It all depends on how regularly wash and wax your truck. I like to do it before winter in Michigan because I like to make sure the paint is clean and waxed since I won't be able to really detail it again till April.

    • Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose  
    • I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose  
    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
