Let me know how the stuff works, I was thinking about it but I put the money into my PC instead of detailing products.

I am curious. Do you just have ample amounts of detail spray, or do you feel like this detail spray wouldn't unseat Adams? I'm about to run out of my gallon of Adams and that's why I opted to try this.

I have tons between my Adam's gallon and my UWW+.

The only thing I use a real detail spray for anymore is drying the car. Everything else is a WW from UWW+.

I do agree with that. I don't use detail spray aside from drying anymore either. Clay lube is ONR dilution, so I don't use it much. I just couldn't pass up this deal.

I am trying this tire dressing because I haven't found one I love yet. You said in your guide that your preferred dressing lasts for months. Do you think it it would be worth it to pick it up with the tire dressing from SCG coming in?

Also, I haven't had a chance to try out the Pete's53 yet, but I really do like the poorboys. Leaves too shiny of an appearance for my taste when applied and not buffed by a microbifer. my brothers test dummy hummer was what it was applied to first and he prefers a shinier look. I'm looking forward to trying it in my camaro and seeing if it will give that nice satin look.

My preferred dressing you can't even buy. It's this Badass product I was testing for Adam's then they never released it for some bizarre reason. That shit was amazing.

I'm pretty loyal to UTTG+ for tires and trim. I may try the SCG at some point but my impression was that it was more like VRT which had to be applied often. I have no idea if that's true or not, just my impression from reading it.

Cool I may have to pick up the UTTG here pretty soon.

Do you think Adams might sell the dressing you are speaking of with a little persuasion? lol

No. Supposedly it's still going to be released but I was supposed to get a sample of the new formula and never did. It's been so long now I really doubt we will see it. Hope I'm wrong though.

The interesting question for me is where will Adam's go now in terms of product development. You don't exactly just hold interviews to replace Dylan.

I think getting rid of any legitimate polisher options was a terrible idea. The people Adam's goes after need a one-stop-shop. Those who are capable of assembling their own kit are generally not going to go with Adam's.

I think the next year will be very interesting for Adam's to say the least. They can coast on their recent releases for a while, but at some point they'll need to innovate and revamp to keep up. Can they do it with what they have now? That's always the question when you lose a big fish from a small pond.
