I was wondering if any of you had ever heard of these products?
I have a distributor near me, but dont really know anything about them.
The guy I spoke to on the phone said he deals with quite a few mobile detailers in the area.
Any thoughts?
 
I have used a few of their products, like the APCs and clay. I much prefer using Megs or Menzerna for polishes and blackfire or zaino for sealants.

I'll echo Bryan's comment. I've used pretty much their whole line-up for over a decade and hate to say that there's much better products available. But, for the cost, many of their liquids are tough to beat.
 
I like their clay and clay lube - #49, also the heavy duty cleaner #8B - 1 oz to a quart sprayer makes a very cheap and effective carpet cleaner. Those are the only ones from AM that I use. For polishes - menzerna, LSP - Blackfire Wet Diamond (what else!)
 
I like their tire dressing(Magic Dressing I think its called), also their clay works great for harder clears, and stubborn contamination. Its a little rough to use on a soft clear. One of their waxes, a carnauba is exactly the same as Clear Kotes carnauba moose, looks great, beads the same, slick, but like CK it doesn't last that long. Some of their stuff isn't bad.
 
Other than the ubiquitous ClayMagic product and it's partner #49 Body Shine, I've only used their washes and 777 apc. I've found all to be average to above average performers. They have a number of other products including some of the dressings, the citrus based apc, and the glass cleaner concentrate that I should have tried, but have not.
 
Like the others above, I use a number of their APC's (777, 713, Red Hot, etc) and a few of their shampoos. I buy their #49 Body Shine QD by the gallon and use it as a clay lube. I always have several APC's of various dilutions with me.

Their #10 paint sealant is nothing great, I like their Magic Mist spray wax but its like every other spray wax out there.

Its a good line for heavy consumables that you do not need to be brand-specific on. For specialty products, there are clearly better choices.
