Default Adam's Products

Looking for some reviews on Adam's products. I did a search and found threads that were years old so I'm sure the products have changed a bit over the years. Looking at the car shampoo, H20 Guard, All Purpose Cleaner, Detail Spray. I notice they have a detail kit online trying to determine if it's worth the cost with some of the extras.

Used them.. H2O spray, detail spray and window cleaner.

Made in the USA
Great quality, higher priced, smells great if you store your car inside.

If you are Internet capable.. follow their instagram profile as they have specials from time to time. Which I think they post on their website.

Give them a try, see what you think.

Just followed them on instagram. I've been eyeing their products for a few weeks and watched a couple of their videos. Need to detail the car one more good time before storing it for the winter.

The H2O spray is something I really want to try my car is fairly new only had 430 miles on the clock when purchased back in May. It has the clear bra installed from the previous owner. Thanks for the response

I use Adams products exclusively, I cant say anything bad other than you will pay more. detail spray is awesome for quick clean up and I really like VRT on the tires.

I'm trying to get a kit but it doesn't come with everything that I want so I'm going to have to add quite a few extras.

Glad to hear you like them a lot

dont remember exactly what they call it but the foam/soap gun is awesome. Good luck, I started with a kit as well. Even though I have 4 of them I dont think the super drying towel is great

I've been using their products for three years now and they are great! If you are not satisfied they have a 110% money back guarantee and they will buy you your favorite product. They are no more expensive then any other quality product, I'm not talking Wallyworld stuff here. I've always had to laugh that people who buy $50,000 plus cars go to Walmart and buy $10 wax! I've had the opportunity to meet Adam himself @ Carlisle and he is a class act down to earth regular guy, he really appreciates his customers.

Their products are great the In and Out and Undercarriage spray are both products you can't get anyplace else and give you a beautiful detail but! the accessories like towels and application pads etc are not worth the extra cost. IMO I would not get the kit but spend the money are more product.

Great products except the "new" blue car shampoo is weak compared to the old pink stuff

I bought a detail kit back in 2007. It contained a clay bay that had a very fine grit that scuffed up the paint on my brand new BMW. Called them and they didn't believe me and blew me off. Didn't even offer to replace the clay bar!!!

That's what I was wondering about the towels and application pads that included in the kits were worth anything. I'll just put together the products I want and order them.

Good to know although I wouldn't need the clay bar on my car. I think I'll bypass that product

I agree. 90% of the products I use are Adams. Believe they give a discount to forum members. Email them, they will tell you.

Yes, 'CORVETTE' is the discount code, I believe it's 10%. By the way thier microsoft towels are great. Don't forget their 110% guarantee.

I have been using Adams products since I bought the car 3 years ago and I won't use anything else.

The H2O Guard and Gloss with 1 wet double soft towel and 1 dry one is the best way ever to dry a car. Try it and see. If you really want a smooth and shiny car you will need to use a clay bar. The key to that is to fold it a lot and use a ton of detail spray to keep it slippery.

They have a product for just about anything you want to do to your car from inside to out and they have videos explaining how to use just about every product they have. Check out the site.

I've watched a few of their videos including that H20 Guard. Do you apply it every time you wash your car or do you wait a few months in between?
