    Really???

    Ok, I know Adams products have been mentioned on here before. I don't have any and I don't plan on getting any. I read on here and choose what sounds the best for my needs and what everyone reviews well.

    Anyway, this D-bag at work is part of the Adams cult. He CONSTANTLY gets packages from them sent here to work (is that really necessary?). And he is one of those, "my stuff is awesome and yours is a turd" about everything.

    Today he got another package from them. I find an Adams brochure on my desk. So I ask him if he put it there... he says, "Yes, you need to learn the right products to get for your car".... um, seriously?

    He's lucky we are at work

    That's an interesting story...


    I find most people like to buy but hate being sold... there's a difference. Here's some advice that has worked well for me over the years,


    Always take the high road...

    I can't believe the guy is that pushy, especially with you! Has he really looked at your car? I'm willing to bet its always clean and the paint looks great, so why would he do this? Btw, what does he drive?

    LOL Very funny but IMO its not always about the product, its about the application, use, and most impotant technique.

    When it comes to products everything has a purpose and every company has a product for a purpose. Its all in how you use said product and the technique you use to get the desired end result.

    If he likes Adam's then thats his choice nothing wrong with that. You like all the great stuff found here nothing wrong with that either. I bet you both could get the same end result with two different products.

    Don't worry Mike- I usually do. I just ignored what he said.

    Trust me, if you knew this guy it would not surprise you... he has an opinion for everyone and everything.
    My car doesn't impress him- it's just a slow 4-cyl car.
    He drives an SRT8.
    It's always big words from a 32 year-old who still lives with his parents and pays someone to detail his car 90% of the time.

    You got to wonder about a guy that will only buy one brand. I always think people like this are sheep or really don't have a fundamental understanding of what they are doing.

    I'm sure Adam's products work fine, but the prices are sick. I'm far from being cheap, but I can't see buying their stuff when I can get Menz, CarPro, Optimum, Ultima, Sonax, Prima, Poor Boys,1Z, and the PBMG brands for less. You can't tell me Adam's stuff is better than the best from those top brands.

    SRT8 what?

    32 yrs old and living at home w/ his parents, maybe down grade the expensive ride and the gas that surely goes into it, try some other detailing products that are cheaper and better and then he'd have some money to be able to take his g/f somewhere after dinner....catch my drift, LOL!
