Packaging: Very nice bottle with catchy black, red, and chrome label. 16 ounces. Flip-top dispenser (I don’t know how you would apply this stuff with it) and/or the conventional sprayer. Of course, I chose to use the sprayer. As pointed out on DC already, the sprayer straw is short of reaching the bottom of the bottle. This must be Adam’s way of making you want to buy more when the sprayer quits working but you still have some left in the bottle (Haha!! I think once you use the product, you will want more anyway!!).
Product: The detail spray is a bright pink liquid. It has a little thicker consistency than most of the other QD’s that I have tried. Maybe it’s just the bright color that makes me think that. :dunno It has a unique smell, can’t really put my finger on it. Maybe the pink antibiotics I had to take as a child.
Directions: The directions say to spray a fine mist on one panel and use a microfiber to wipe said panel clean and dry. Pretty simple, not much to it. Since this is the new batch and is touted as being able to fit the bill of a spary and wipe also, I think maybe some mention of that could be made on the bottle or directions. In any case, no big deal. Also, it says you can use it as a clay lube and there are directions for that, but after using it as a QD, I wouldn’t dare use it for a clay lube. :)
Adam’s Microfiber: First impression out of the box was “wow!” This was some nice, plush MF. One super nice thing about them was the tag. It’s not sewn into the MF seam. Rather, it’s a sticker that you can simply pull off. Kudos to whoever’s idea that was! After using, I can only say that I am still impressed. The MF literally soaked up the Detail Spray and the dirt that was on my paint (truck was washed recently. Had been through some rain). The MF/Detail Spray combo left no streaking. This is the best looking and best working MF I have tried. I hope to get more in the near future.
Use: This stuff is super easy to use. I sprayed it on and let it sit for a few seconds. I then wiped it with one portion of the MF and flipped the MF for my final wipe. NO STREAKING! By far the best QD I have ever used. I thought I was sold on the Eagle One Wet Wipe & Shine (over-the-counter), but the Adam’s blows it completely out of the water. I haven’t had a really good opportunity to polish/wax my truck in a few weeks, so I didn’t know exactly how the Adam’s would work. (S100 is my present topper) This stuff took off the water spots and some pretty heavy dirty spots. And it left the finish absolutely smooth as glass. It is super slick!! To say the least I am very impressed. I understand Nick’s hype about this stuff now. I thought maybe I would use it later as a clay lube for testing purposes, but I don’t think I want to “waste” this stuff.
Overall, the Detail Spray is one amazing product. One question I have is if it leaves anything behind on the paint. Maybe I would like to QD with it soon and put some more S100 on and see how it goes. I would highly suggest this stuff to anyone who wanted my opinion. I suppose you can use it as a one-step S&W/QD as Nick suggests. It seems like it would work, but then again I usually keep my vehicles pretty clean. Maybe I can get to use it on a more neglected finish and see how it comes out. Great product. If I were giving grades it would get an A+ in my book!!
P.S. No, there are no pics. I don`t have a digital camera. You`ll just have to imagine I suppose. Sorry!
