ADS...The Story!

[Bri26]

In my opinion, it's just another YouTube brand like DIY Detail. I'm not saying that's good or bad but after falling for some of these hyped up brands of the month or year, I've learned the YouTube marketing game. I also never really felt good about that all the ADS products say to wear eye and respiratory protection but they never do this in their videos.

Final thoughts, if a brand needs to constantly be hyped up then it's probably not a really good brand. A really good brand will let the products speak for itself.

That reminds me of the BBQ YouTubers and their black gloves, in the name of food safety of course, but then they proceed to cross contaminate everything. Yuck!

Totally agree on a good product selling itself. Look at Tec582. Not a single ad, no YouTube pitch man (just a lot of fans). I also love sleeper products like that for another reason, they out the sneaky pitchmen who test other products but refuse to mention others.

I've talked to DJ a few times, he was/is in my neck of the woods, totally passionate about detailing and a really nice guy. I wish him well.

That's what I don't get since every ADS product says -

Wear skin protection.
Wear respiratory protection.
Wear eye protection.

When they show how to use their products on a YouTube video, if anything they only wear gloves. Practice what you preach guys and you will get a lot more respect. If the protection is only for liability reasons, then that seems suspect as well. Best practice would be to make safe products and be as transparent as possible with the SDS sheets.

IMO the whole glove wearing thing is done for political correctness or fear of getting “cancelled” by everyone. [btw how stupid is that concept]?

As far as wearing gloves for the task of cleaning wheels.. If someone were to really need to be careful due to hazardous chemicals, they’d be wearing gloves up past the forearms, because wearing normal gloves and getting wet or reaching into a bucket renders the whole thing useless.

Wearing gloves to apply ceramic coating works, but gloves to bucket wash a car is pretty useless.

I agree with you but I'd venture a majority of us don't wear gloves when spraying on ADS Tire Cleaner, for example, so IMO it's more of a CYA on ADS' part

I do respect opinions but again, ADS is not a YouTube product like CLEAN, come on

FWIW I'm about as regular backyard detailer there is and being here since February of 2012 and a pretty consistent contributor here should carry "some" weight, so I couldn't disagree more about ADS being a "YouTube brand", the easiest example of that is Spam, period

Those of you whom think this about ADS I must ask..."Have you tried a single ADS product?"
