not for the USA, douche :ugh2: :icon17:

:hello: anyone? :hello:

I think I will wash mine tonight too... waterless wash tho... no water in the garage yet....

I thinks its ok. I only clay twice a year but I wax much more often.

Ruh roh! You may be in trouble. :icon14: it's just me looks like!

:confused: :eek: and you give ME advice. Doesn't work well the other way! Lol


Want me to guess?!:happydance:

phew! just got in from getting wood for grandparents.

:tup: pshew! Ty Alcheng and Zman :happydance::tup:

Sounds good. I never did clay on my cars before the Z, so it's been a new adventure. I'm going to be polishing the panels before the summer, so anything that might happen can be fixed then. :tup:

:icon18: I figured it wouldn't be a big deal, but I just wanted to get some additional feedback. If someone has a good reason why they do something a particular way, I'd like to know and see if it works for me as well. You're always welcome to advise me :tup: after all you are older WISER than me :icon17: ;)

Alright, I'm going to go wax the Z and try to clean my exhaust tips with the Adam's Metal Polish products I purchased during their St. Patrick's Day sale :tup:

Spray wax is more like a quicky, you use it in between regular wax.

:tup: fixed :tup:

mr.jar- i would use it while wiping dry so that your spray wax can add lubricity and let your waffle glide. :) at least that's how i use prima hydro. :tup:

and you dont NEED to clay before wax. it's better you have no contaminants on the paint to maximize wax/polymer adhesion, but not necessary especially if spray wax as it's a quicky like mr.alcheng said. :tup:

wheew, just got done inspecting my new HU for fit, re-position the gopro in my Z, and some other stuff for the house. ordered up another plate frame as the one i got today was kinda :ugh2:. hope the new one i ordered comes through..

griots stopped selling plate frames so i can't get the same ones ive been using with great success. :shakes head:

It's not going to hurt. Meg's makes some good products. I would not necessarily use it to replace a proper waxing, but if you want to use it to extend the life of the wax you do put down, by all means. :tup:

I'm curious to get your feedback on the product. Let us know your thoughts after the fact. :)

I have used it last year with a lot of success . Just don't expect it to last a long time.

Excellent :tup: I might have to get more of this stuff. I feel like I don't wax often enough already, so this stuff after the in between washes seems perfect!

:icon18: :p

Your explanations are always comforting, Mr. Kenchan :tiphat: I'd rep you if I weren't out :)

The Quik Wax spray seems like a solid product. I definitely have a nice shine that isn't there after a normal wash. And because it was incredibly easy to apply, I will probably make it standard routine for the washes in between clay and wax :tup:

That's the truth. I just had a small sample size (7 oz I think) and it's more than half gone after one use on the Z. Still, If I get a full size bottle, it should last about a year since I won't be using it during the full wash, clay, and wax sessions.

So I don't think the wrap is sticking very well.

Use a microfiber cloth and you're fine.



I would just like to take this time to say that my MIL is the worst dishwasher-loader I have ever seen. I just noticed the dishes were done so I thought I would be nice and unload it. This is what I find. FML.

Gawd. Hubby's nephew just left, been here since thursday. :icon14: omg. :shakes head:

No, the owner wasn't sure the wrap wwould stick so he tested it with just this one side. I'm texting him now to see if there is a better way to go about it or if this is it. If this is it, I'm getting in touch with a bodyshop to get it painted.

Mr. JAR - now that my work schedule is lightening up, I'd be more than happy to bring my Griot's stash to casa JAR for a wax "Tech Day". I've got both the 3" and 6" random orbital buffers and enough products to even make ms. pint happy (whose car we can work on too!). Might ask for a corner of a room to unroll a sleeping bag on, for the night, but happy to help. :tup:

Here are the results of my first experience with Adam's Metal Polish 1 and 2:

Nissan 370Z Forum - JARblue's Album: Adams Metal Polish

I am quite happy with the results. This stuff definitely works better than any metal polishing products I tried previously. In fact, they never worked, which is probably the reason my exhaust tips got as dirty as they did.

Here is a close up after an initial clean with Windex


And here are the final results :tup:

Hooray! The forum is back to "normal"

Fixed. :tiphat:

Thank gawd the forum is back to normal !



:tup: i may have to try this!

:tiphat: You are awesome, Mike! :tup: Thanks very much for the offer, and I would be happy to host you any time you're ever in town. The spare bedroom is a mess right now, so give me a heads up so we can clean it up for you :icon17: I need to do an oil change myself, so I'd be happy for you and Ms. Pint to come over and wash her car in the driveway, while I work on mine in the garage :tup:

I actually just restocked all my car detailing products. I stepped up from the Meguiar's Gold Class paste wax to the Meguiar's Ultimate paste wax. I also have the 3" pads (only a hand applicator tho) for fixing up some light scratches. I have access to a 6" random orbital, too, but I've never taken him up on the offer.

Guam is where americas day starts... so technically, yes.. it's over in the USA.. :bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl: :stirthepot:

April fools is only for the AM hours FOOLS

:shakes head: you disappoint me Fifty ....

It's been almost two years now. We had a huge blow up recently because of all the drama she's been starting in the neighborhood. It ended up with me kicking the door in half and punching a hole in the wall. I was about 5 seconds away from putting her in the hospital and myself in jail. I gave her 3 months to find a better job, find a place to live, and GTFO. I seriously can't take it anymore.

:icon18::iagree:

the hell... why so bubbly? :ugh2:

:icon18:



mr.jar- :tup: yah, the 3" orbital i cool to have. i use it for the side sill (skirts) area, side mirrors, a-pillar, any small area that needs polishing/waxing including stove tops, lol. it's well worth the $90 or watever they cost. :tup:

:iagree: :woot:

it was gheyer when it was background was pink... the gheyness emanating from its members did not change :icon17:

Yup! :iagree:

There's a little bit of elbow grease involved, but the results were impressive enough, I didn't even get all OCD about it :tup:

definitely looking good there, mr.jar :tup: like a high definition clean finish. :D

why? I had plenty of pranks to play.. but they are classified.. and if I told you, I would have to kill you.. :bowrofl::bowrofl:

Dude, there's so much wrong there I'm actually at a loss for words....:shakes head:

What the?! :eek: Good thing you went and took it from em.

Yeah, cause everyone in the continental US uses Guam's time zone :ugh2:

Hawaii is the end of the day in the US, and there's still 8 more hours of April Fool's there :tup:

speaking of in-laws, i heard some bad news that they're coming over in the coming months. :facepalm:
and it's already 4/2 there, so this is not some badarse april fool's prank.
