Detail with Adams PC Kit
 

After owning the Adams PC Kit since the end of July, I finally put it to use. This weekend was dedicated to polishing the Z. I ended up clay barring, polishing with Swirl and Haze Remover, Fine Machine Polish followed by Super Wax and a coat of Americana. My back feels it but the car looks amazing! I can't say enough good things about these products. They work so well!

I'm hoping to get the car out tomorrow for a few pictures before she's covered for the winter but here are a few images.

*Update*, Car looks great outdoors, the lighting for pictures was bad but I added a couple images. Now the car needs a bath, too much dust in the air:(

Sry to hear about you back, but your car looks great!!!! Definitely try to post up some pics of it outside. Making me feel bad that my Z is a little dirty.

really nice....looks like the back pain was well worth it

Did you get her outside?

The Z looks great! I use the same adams products and could not be happier with the results

Very nice detail!

Thanks Junkman, I couldn't have done it without your videos!

Came out great! i used the junkman's videos for mine as well :tup:

Looks great... the body lines of the Z make for some really great reflections.

Glad to be of service guys. :tup:

I can see that the front tire on your bike is about 5 psi. low. You should check it before you next ride. I was able to tell because your paint it is shining so hard.

It's looking good, to bad you have to put her away for the winter.

And i'm just joking about your tire. It could be 3 psi. low.

You're probably right about the tire. The bike doesn't get ridden enough. The Z kind of took over this year:) Winter will be in KC this weekend. One more bath and the cover will go on.

First of all Oscar the car looks awesome, great job on it mate.

Have a question for you, this coming from someone with very little to no experience with a PC or clay bar. What made you clay bar the car? reason I ask I am about to order the Adams PC Kit but wasn't planning to clay bar anything.

I have a 2010 black Z with minor swirls right from the dealer, when I say minor they are the kind of swirl where people look at the car and say it looks great and how do I keep it in such good shape but I know where the marks are....

Would you recomend clay bar yearly or just when it's in really bad shape and what would you consider bad enough shape to clay bar?

Any advise is appricated,

Thanks for the compliment.

You really should clay the car first. Take a sandwich bag and put it over your hand. Lightly rub it on your car and you will feel the dirt. It's amazing how this works. By using the caly bar first, you are removing the grit and starting with a clean finish. I think this is a very important step.

I plan to clay only when I polish the car. Most likely I am going to run over the car again in the spring with Adams Fine Machine Polish. Since the car is covered for the winter, I won't clay but normally I would if the car had been on the road for a period of time.

Post pictures when you get your Z done. I would love the see the results. Be sure to watch Junkman's videos first.
