Where is the part where they tell you how to occupy your three year old for hours and hours so that you can get this done?

This link is in the original post. I'll remove the dead youtube links though.

Is anyone using Adam's products?

Any thoughts on them... good or bad?

They have some good stuff for sure

I use zaino Z5 around 3 coats then Z2 around 2 coats then Z6 Z8 and finish it off with ZCS clear seal

I am impressed. The techniques Ammo NYC have are great. I chave a car cleaning arsenal, but have never used a product like the hydrate. the closest I have come is with a dry rinse polymer. Anyone know of any brand available at local autopart stores?

Awesome post

This is Larry kosilla from ammo nyc. Both him and his products are amazing, and all I ever use on my m3, which I self clean only.

I don't think your supposed to wax/clay every time. Isn't it like every 6 months you do that? I'm gonna start using the zano products. Haven't washed my car yet, got it yesterday but when its time, I'm gonna do it right so I don't get any scratches or any unwanted "visual effects".

Your post comes 11 years and 2 months too late ...

Correct. Clay bars are abrasive so only do this step when properly prepping for a correction with compound and/or polish and before an application of wax/sealant.

Here's my formula after I did some research from obsessed garage:

1. Foamed Wax strip first time
2. Clay bar first time
3. Iron x on wheels first time
4. Rain X window treatment

Then just this:

1. Regular foamed soap
2. 2 bucket method
3. Tire and rim brake buster on wheels
4. Bead maker

This routine takes me about an hour. I've done it on both my ceramic pro m3 and regular 330. The rain x lasts long. The bead maker doesn't but I'm using that to stop water spots so it's applied every time in my setup.
