Re: Post your trucks for some detailing product!

Say widewhite70, is that the 523 and clear coat? Nice effort and it's BEAUTIFUL.

Re: Post your trucks for some detailing product!

I would have to test your product first to see if I like it better than Meguiar's

Yes I would clay bar before you polish for sure! You would be surprised what will come off of the clear coat that you can't see. After that, hit it with some Paint Correction Polish, Paint Finishing, and some wax and you'll be looking great!
The Americana wax gives an excellent shine!

Re: Post your trucks for some detailing product!

Ok guys after a few emails back and fourth we made 2 choices for now. Adam's Polishes will also be starting a new account on here so there will hopefully be more giveaways like this in the future!
I will post the choices as soon as I talk to the guys.
Thank you for posting! If you have any questions feel free to ask

Sorry I missed this post, but yes they do work very well on enamel! No special steps need taken, you can apply it the same way as clear coat. You will be very impressed with the results!

It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: Post your trucks for some detailing product!

You guys will love the product. I've been detailing personal and fleet vehicles for 30 years. Adams makes some of the best products I've every used. The H20 guard and gloss is the absolute best product I've ever used!!
