Adam's versus Menzerna

^^^ And Adam`s Buttery Wax (Or whatever it is called) looks,k smells, and finishes exactly like Chemical Guys Butter Wet Wax. My buddy uses Adam`s mainly, and I have a lot of Chemical Guys stuff. We are noticing a lot of similar products.
 
I have also heard the same for CG Speed Wipe and Adam's Detail Spray

I have used both (Adam's original version) and do not think they are the exact same formula. They look and smell similar but Adam's seemed less watery in use.

One of the two is probably watered down.

I still remember when A.J., aka Junkman 2000, left there.

Even though junkman did not really work for adams he did more in my opinion for his company image than Adam himself, I met AJ a few years ago great guy. As I said in a older post " if your listening or care Adam when the junk man left so did my money" now that's power. Hope Dylan lands at auto geek it would good for everybody.:buffing:

Really? I use it on my wash & quick wax details as it is wipe on, wipe off. I really like it and it gives great gloss.

Collinite is made in Onedia & Utica, which is very close to me. I`ve passed by there before.

I met Junkman at one of Adams clinics in my area, he makes so even a novice like me understood it. Never did find out why he left but from what I hear and see on you tube he`s doing OK...

Mike does and excellent job also I got one of his videos and found alot of good info also. Being a novice there are so many products and opinons its hard to find out whats good for yourself but forums do clear things up and of course AG sales and free samples..

It helps when you play video on 70" TV it seem he is in the room with you Im the MAN
 
I use a lot of Adam's stuff but I also lurk this forum daily and soak up as much info as I can. It's good you finally bought the Menzerna polishes because for a few posts there it looked like you were "breaking your head" over which way to go. My suggestion is go ahead and try out the Menzerna stuff, no need to stress out over it.

I have the Adam's two step corrections system and really like them, especially the finishing polish which gives you a ton of working time (the old polishes didn't work for me) but I also have the Meg twins and the D300 and a few others. Not all vehicles paints are the same so it's good to have different ones on hand to accommodate different vehicles.

As for Dylan leaving, I was truly shocked. I really liked that guy, he was very active on the forums, very nice and really knows his stuff. First Chase and now Dylan. :cry:

Interesting. Just wild speculation here of course, but I wonder if it's a case of conscience catching up. I once had a job selling something where the reality of its abilities didn't live up to the hype and sensationalism of the marketing machine. It does catch up with you and wear you down if you have a conscience.

I don't think it's this because he was the head of research and development. He pretty much had the final say in everything that came out from there. If he didn't believe in their abilities, he wouldn't push them out. It would be a case of consciousness if he was forced to promote products he didn't think were good but I don't think that's the case here. He drove the development of these products.

I just think he has greater ambitions and maybe wants to break out on his own which is normal as people often do this often in business.
 
The leaving of Chase as a rep and Dylan as their head of operations is definitely odd. As a weekend warrior that uses a lot of Adam's products, amongst others, I would be lying if it didn't make me ponder things a bit.
