Glad to see Adam back doing some videos!

Welcome back Adam! I really enjoy your vide tutorials.

As others said, so glad to see Adam doing a video again.

Good to see you in action Adam. Great tips sir. Love that Belt Buckle🇺🇸

Just ordered my mitt! 🎉

YAY, MORE ADAM!

No wonder you have an amazing company! You put everything in simple easy to follow instructions! I never knew there was a guy name Adam, that shows ya much I know…lol

So glad to see Adam back in the videos . I always learn something new from him

It strikes me for a complete amateur like myself, who has never used clay before, the mitt is likely the best place to start since it's mild and easy. May not be the best but I'm also not going to screw up my car first go round

I’ve probably used your clay mitt on 100 different vehicles. I have gone through a few of them and I have liked them for my normal details. If I am doing a Graphene ceramic coating I will go for traditional, but for common details, clay mitt all the way.

Adams secret lair looks amazing!

Just did this last well on my wife's Lexus. I used Adams Shampoo with ONR along with clay miit (seen in video). Definitely worth the time prior to polishing and sealing.

Cold surface n water hardest to detail .. density harder... Love your products!

It's good guide for decontamination. Can I use your strip wash as foam for clay mitt?

I wish I had a mitt, I got like 10 clay bars from mystery box/buckets in the last year lol, but overall great video

Is it just soap that you’re putting on the vehicle before you use the clay mitt?

When is the red folding detailing cart going to be in stock again? It's been over 1 and 1/2 years

Can you use the iron remover as a clay lube with the clay mit?

@4:46 caught himself 😂

Thanks for thid instructional video but I'd never use clay mitt instead of wash mitt with the car shampoo. Car shampoo is another chemical as well. And I totally agree with you, clay mitt is the least aggressive decontaminating tool. Clay bar is the best.

Your website says the best lubricant for the mitt is the detail spray. ?

Im new to claying the car as well. Here was my thoughts. First rinse the car then get some apc degreaser and pre wash rhe car, rinse then get the contact wash, rinse then iron decon with clay mitt then rinse and wax? Is that right?

What soap was used in the cannon?

does the clay mitt remove paste/spray wax be it carnauba or ceramic graphene based...?

Lmao I always wondered who tf “Adam” was. Love adams car shampoo

What belt buckle is that?

Business is good lol, that house and car.

Heck yeahhh

as a detailer two big questions come to my mind … 1. how often do you recommend rinsing (or dunk in rinse bucket) off your clay mitt when you are removing contamination with the detail spray method and soap method? 2. some clay mitts (and synthetic pads,sponges,discs) will introduce marring into the clearcoat that looks like "ice frost" when performed in colder outside temperatures…(below 55/60f) Do you have the same experience with your clay mitt?

I clay vehicles all the time for customers (my decon package) and use a lot of lubrication and never polish afterwards unless that's a service they pay for...especially since the chemical decon is done before mechanical and that removes alot of the harsher iron contaminants.

What do you think of spraying tar remover. (Applies to iron remover too) then cover them with ph neutral snow foam? So it can dweel longer and maybe it the iron / tar remover can be more effective?

Iron & tar removers are generally formulated to work alone & not to dwell for long periods at all. Tar remover is also intense. It's not a maintenance product. It's for removing blatant visible tar, rubber, embedded bugs, etc. Iron remover is a maintenance decon product.

Could you possibly find some vehicles that get driven everyday, sit out in the sun for 12 to 16 hours no garage and use your products on that. I have a 03 f150 and a 14 fusion. My truck gets used every day and I work beside a chemical plant. Not to be a negative Nelly, but all I see you guys work on are vehicles that are kept under cover and do not get driven often.

best ever is to use Bilt Hamber clay fr UK they have their own clay mine ! avail in S , M, H grades it is so pure they say and it is TRUE ! you can use just plain water ! try it let me know what you think ? and update your video w/an addendum ? thx Jack

Rumor is the clay mit mars the finish? True or false?

Are you supposed to wash, rinse and dry then foam again for the clay mitt and rinse and dry again? Or can you clay mitt on the initial foam for the wash? Or is the best way, wash -> rinse -> Dry -> detail spray & Clay mitt

@RothBeyondTheGrave

2 ай бұрын

You don't have to dry before using the clay mitt, but the car should be washed first. While still wet, you can apply more car shampoo/soap & use that as lube for the mitt. You could also re foam the whole car like Adam did in this vid.

Do you wash the car again after Clay or just spray off and move on to next step? Thx

@AdamsPolishes

If you are using a Clay Mitt during the wash process as Adam demonstrates in this video, you can just rinse all of the clay and soap residue off with the hose or pressure washer and then move onto your drying step.

Proper to YOU! And you’re the best huh! Hahahahaha

Hi there, it was actually our Mega Foam shampoo mixed with water in the foam cannon. Our Detail Spray will not foam in a cannon since it's not a soap. You can see our washing video with Mega Foam here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dKZkz8OPZq7bepc.html

Is it mandatory to polish the car after claymit? I want to do this on my white car but i dont want to polish :(

@AdamsPolishes

Жыл бұрын

Hi Pepe, not necessarily. The clay mitt isn't super aggressive, so as long as you use light pressure and rinse it out often, you should not see too much marring or light scuffs from it on a white or light-colored car. Machine or hand polishing is mainly to remove swirl marks and bring out more gloss and depth in the finish. After you clay, you could go straight to Surface Prep and then Graphene Ceramic Spray Coating, but keep in mind that any scratches or swirl marks will still be there afterward if you do not polish,

Are you using soap or clay lube when you foam the vehicle?

@AdamsPolishes

Жыл бұрын

Hi there, Adam is using our Mega Foam soap in the Foam Cannon to act as the clay lube in this case. You can use our Detail Spray as a clay lube on a clean vehicle as well, but Detail Spray will not foam up in a foam cannon.

Does using a clay mitt scratch your car?

I thought a simple detail spray or iron remover spray was enough for claying instead of reapplying soap.

Doesn't it stand to reason that if the fine clay bar can be used on ceramic coatings, then one could also safely use the clay mitt on ceramic coatings. Correct?

I don’t see anyone asking the important question here. What is the red side for?

@AdamsPolishes

Жыл бұрын

Hi there, the red woven fabric side should not be used on paint - it may not be delicate enough for some paint surfaces. That side is used to lay the mitt back into the packaging, or onto a work bench, detail cart, etc, without it sticking to that surface. You want to try to avoid laying it clay-side-down on any surface.

Why would anyone use more than a one year coating or sealant if you clay every 6 months since it's an abrasive and will remove a coating? 🤔
