    Re: 3D HD Adapt and Poxy Review - 1940 Studebaker Streetrod detailed by Mike Phillips

    I've never, ever found HD Adapt easy to remove if left to sit on the car... I wish it was for me.

    HD adapt is the only product that I've gotten to cut at a high level and finish at a high level in on soft paint. I also find it an amazing product in that I've used it in as little as 2 passes.

    Beautiful work Mike !! I've heard that Adapt is very elastic and good working time, approximately how much product did you used?

    When Mike first posted, and he was talking about the wipe off and to check the 2 spots with Adapt. I was like ...have I Missed Something???....looked like a Wax Haze all over the car...Possibly a New Technique Polish while Waxing

    I will have to try HD Adapt, since I have Polish but...

    Can't speak to this personally, but I heard it from a Very Reliable Source that Scholls Concepts S20 with their Spider Pads is "Other-Worldly" 1-Step on Soft Paints...wipes off like a dream. He was Gushing profusely...so I MUST HAVE IT lol.

    If you're interested, PM me for that source.


    hope it helps

    Excellent work Mike, car looks awesome, curious that you used clay instead of nanoskin.

    That's what I experienced. When I type,

    Long play time

    That means you can buff for a long time without the product drying up on you. The zero dusting characteristic is another great feature and benefit.

    Enough to buff out a 1940 Studebacker convertible.

    Seriously... the bottles I used had already been opened and used by some of the guys here at work and I didn't take time to weigh them. I do have an article on how to do that though....


    How much Menzerna FG 400 to buff out a car?

    I think when it comes to some things related to car detailing the word easy can be a relative term. I simply didn't find the Adapt polish hard to wipe off and I didn't remove any until I had the entire car polished.

    This is a custom paint job (obviously), but if I had to gauge it I'd say somewhere in the middle of the road for hardness and softness.

    Sure buffed up to a high shine.
