Decided to play around with a few of the corrected panels, below is before any correction and after is with swirl and haze / fine polish / brilliant glaze and buttery wax, all from Adams of course

Those are some outstanding results. It's about time you started on that puppy!
This isn't by hand is it? I've spent many hours trying to get my paint to look that good and still have a few areas I'm unsatisfied with...
You can never achieve by hand what you can achieve with a machine. Your hand and arm are just not capable of producing the polishing action of a machine.
I thought about the americana, and they recommended it, but I have always wanted to try the buttery wax so I did, don't know if it is any better/worse then anything else, but it went on and off easy so I'm happy.
That's the thing about Buttery Wax. It goes on easy and comes off the same way. The difference is that it doesn't last as long as any of the other waxes that Adam's sells.
Hahaha he sounds a little like my Grandfather. He did would wait until it rained to wash his truck lol. The results you got are amazing! Which PC kit would you recommend? The big one or the "starter" kit?
The kit that you decide to get should reflect the results that you are looking for. Understanding which kit to buy requires understanding what the products contained within the kit do. For example, if you were looking for a kit strictly designed to address the proper washing of your car, you would not buy a kit that contained the polisher because the polisher has nothing to do with washing your car. Thus, what you need to do is look at each product contained within a kit you are considering and see if each product addresses an issue that you would like to address also. If so, then that is the kit for you.
Now what you will eventually figure out if you end up truly understanding my videos is that all aspect of paint maintenance affect the final results. In other words, you can fix your paint once, wash your car properly and not have to continually repair new paint damage. Or you can fix your paint, wash it improperly and have to continually repair your paint over and over again. This is totally the wrong approach to paint maintenance as it requires you to constantly remove clear coat off the paint. As you can guess, that is not a good scenario. This is exactly why I came out with my kit. It addresses every aspect of paint maintenance, from wash to wax.
I got the "Premium Porter Cable Kit" and I love it. It comes with just about everything you'll need to detail your car inside and out. If you are more concerned with just your paint, I recommend Junkman's Kit.
If you are concerned with EVERY aspect of paint maintenance, I suggest my kit.
Thanks guys! I've been sitting on the fence for awhile now about this kit and I think this thread has convinced me to go ahead and get it in a month or two. Is it really as easy to use as everyone says it is? Junkman's vids make it seem like a walk in the park, but I've always waxed & polished old school style: by hand.
This does take some practice but you are well ahead of the curve if you can follow my very specific instructions within my videos. You don't do it 50% of the way I do it and then 50% of the way someone else does it, you do EXACTLY what I do or EXACTLY what someone else does. You cannot mix techniques. That is a recipe for failure. Once you get your technique down, it truly is a very simple process and you will find that paint correction is actually very easy with the correct products and tools.
^^^^ I'll try that on the next order! I always have ordered direct through Adams, but not sure why
Because my discount code only works at the Adam's website.
