I'll stay tuned in the coming weeks for the new shipment, would you plan on moving to only selling the Adam's nozzle after the current uber shipment runs out (meaning this would be the last batch of uber nozzles?)

Different question:
What soap do you guys use to strip wax? I think ive heard CG citrus will do it but you guys dont sell that?

Adam's APC would be our choice or you can use Sonax MultiStar have had great results with that as well.

Does the volume of wheel cleaner greatly differ from 1 brand to another. Used Colourtec after a long brutal winter and I must have used up 1/3 of the bottle...Not sure how cost effective it will be in the long run. I DO like it more the FE

I'll let Phil chime in but with the ferrous-fighting wheel cleaners like Full Effect, Colourtec, Adam's Deep Cleaner, etc, all are 16 oz. bottles (I think FE is 16.9 - half liter but no matter), and I usually get about 3-4 cars worth per bottle.

Might be better to refill from gallon refills or buy Colourtec in the buy 3 get 1 that Phil does. I only use wheel cleaners about 2-3 times a year at most anyway, then I seal the wheels and just use soap and water in between, so at most I got through about a bottle and a half per year.

we are at 07648 - 55 Oak St, Norwood, NJ.

we start at $350 and go up from there.

it really would depend on what is needed or what you feel is needed?

what type of car/suv? color? miles on the vehicle?

well could be two, i have a 2012 ML that will need to be returned end of July so thinking detail it to avoid the "you gotta pay for that" syndrome that dealers typically like to throw out. it has 22k miles

the other one is a 2013 X5 i just picked up (has just under or just over 7k miles) so its less of detail and more of i got a few spots that need touch up etc assuming you guys can/would even do that.

Phil,

I've got a 2011 Sport Autobiography in Fiji white I picked up about a month ago that's currently awaiting it's inaugural spring detail session. I'm currently looking at the Opti-coat 2 you offer, but I'm a bit unclear as to whether or not once applied, still requires a a good waxing afterwards. In terms of coverage, would one syringe be enough to cover the Sport & the X5?

Thanks,
-S
