The Glass Cleaner is my favorite Glass Cleaner, period. I was previously using Meguiar's NXT and although it works well, it would streak occasionally. Adam's does not streak, has a pleasant scent, and cuts through bugs and grime easily. I prefer it to Invisible Glass and Sprayway, which is saying a lot because those are two really good cleaners.

The APC I have been using cut 50/50 with water on wheel wells, under the hood, on tires, and even on some dirty carpets. It cleans well, and has never had any adverse effects on any surface. Some agitation with a brush is required for dirtier jobs.

The under carriage spray is a nice product for the little details. I use it on wheel wells after using the APC and it leaves a nice, dark finish with no streaks and doesn't collect dust like other similar products I have tried. It also works great on exposed suspension components.

I'm dying to get my hands on some of the new wax but haven't placed an order yet.

Thanks for the new products Adam's.

Adams,

So far I absolutely love the stuff.

In & Out Spray is my favorite! I wish it didnt blotch on some of the underhood panels in the sun, but I havnt seen any other product that even comes close so I am happy with it!

I use the Porter cable all the time with the whole product line. I just recently got ahold of the new Machine polish and I love it, definetly gives it a nice pop on top of the buttery wax. I wish it would mantain its pop just allittle longer, but I am very pleased with the product!

The new Glass cleaner is great much easier then what I was using before!

Also the under carriage spray is a nice addition over the generic auto zone tire spray I was using before in the wheel wells! In leaves a nice finish without the silicone curtains I saw with cheaper products!

Everything else I just love and have used the whole line for the past year, and it help me win a Celebrity Pick award at Corvettes of Carlisle, based mostly on the detail alone.

It keeps my 50K daily driver looking brand new!

Thanks,

Andy Wheeler

I have used the microfiber waffle weave drying towel. I’m not sure if that’s one of the new micro fiber products you are looking for. Previously I used the Meguiars microfiber waffle weave drying towel and was pretty impressed that it. But then I picked up the white Adams waffle weave drying towel at the orange county swap meet. To say the least I was really impressed by how it worked. It just sucked up all the water. It also has a large capacity for how much water it holds. I had no problem drying my entire Corvette with one towel. With other products I needed 2 towels. I have been recommending this towel to anyone who will listen. It truly sets the high standard for a drying towel. I am also extremely picky about what I use to dry the Vette as the Vette has hard paint but it is also very scratch sensitive paint. So whatever towel I use must work well on the Vette, and the Adams towel is perfect!

BTW, I went back to the swap meet and got a 2nd towel.

I have used both the Glass Cleaner which works very well and the Undercarriage spray which smells great. I have been dying to try the In and Out Spray since I have heard nothing but good about it. I was going to order some to try anyway.

I haven't had the pleasure of using those products listed, but have amazing results with the Detail Spray.

My hats off to Brad and the crew too for outstanding customer service and communication!

I have not found a product yet that I don't like. I have I believe the complete line of products, as well as some refills.
I was completely blown away with the new Fine Machine Polish and Machine Super Wax. I actually orderit as soon as it was available, but had not used it until today. I have always used the Revive Polish and Buttery Wax and it has always given my Torch Red coupe a great shine, but after todays application of the two new products designed to work with The PC buffer, I can not believe the results. I followed Adam's instruction on the video as well as the bottles, and the shine is simple amazing. The Super Wax comes off so easy with the new plush micro fiber towels, actually I belive even easier then the Buttery Wax I would love to add a few pictures, but here on the central west coast of Florida, the weather is not good for picture taking. I will try to follow-up tomorrow.
I decided to take a few shots in the garage, not the best lighting, but with the weather as it is these will due.

All-Purpose Cleaner: this cleaner does work as advertised; it is good for cleaning the engine compartment as well as sponges, pads and towels when you are done with them.

Invisible Undercarriage Spray: I have been using this, I like the finish it leaves on inner wheel well, the only thing the way it goes on it leaves some drip marks, maybe a finer spray pattern will work better.

Super-Plush Microfiber Towels. I find myself reaching for theses towels more and more; I received two as a sample form a car show and will be getting some when I need to make my next order.

In & Out Spray: The in and out spray is my favorite for keeping my engine compartment and windshield cowl looking good. The best product I have used for that, no greasy residue. MY friend was over and saw me using it, he then grabbed the can out of my hand and went at it on his engine bay and loved it.

In and Out spray rocks, have used the window cleaner with mixed results to be honest, the undercarriage spray is pretty cool and the new microfiber towels are without question the best I've used.

I know I just missed the top 10, but the glass cleaner is by far the best I have ever used. I had to buy a second gallon immediately after fri @ corvettes at Carlisle. The wife used it, and passed it out to her family. Bought another gallon on Sunday (again at vettes at carlisle), and it is 1/2 gone.
I stand corrected. Post #6 plugged a product not listed. Maybe I do qualify as #10. I will leave it up to Brad.

The leather cleaner and conditioner made my interior look like new. The under carriage spray is very simple to use and the glass cleaner is first rate. Great products.

Haven't tried any, but would love to try the APC! Wish I had tried one so I could give a comment, but here is a chance to make a new fan...

I've used:
Undercarriage Spray: Awesome product, great grape smell. Even made the bosses four wheel drive wheel wells look great!
Leather Cleaner: My wife won't give mine back, she uses it all the time for our leather sectional.
Leather Conditioner: Again had to buy the bulk size so I can keep some for the cars. Great product!!
VRT: Amazing product, I love how it doesn't fling from the tires.
Super Machine Wax: Fabulous!!! I can't get over the durability and shine this has combined with the Super Fine Polish.
All Purpose Cleaner: Again if the wife ever lets me use it on the cars again instead of the house. Works great.
Carpet Cleaner: Lost this one too, I steal it back every now and then to clean the Burb and Impala when she is not looking.
Glass Cleaner: Works well but I prefer an aerosol spray for the inside of the windows. It does work very well on our Bay window!

I picked up some of the all-purpose cleaner from Adam himself (are you always that nice?). I find it works best for me diluted..I'm surprised at how strong it is! I'd like some of that undercarraige spray I've heard so much about. I tried to purchase some in& out spray , but they were already sold out..Hope I'm one of the first 10!!!
