Haven`t been on here much since we have been doing some crazy military training lately and I`ve been doing a lot of buying for my business. Had an order from autopia come in today.

Still trying to figure out what kind of pads I want to use with the mini since meguiars decided to quit making 3". I`ve considered buying the punches for the 3" and making them myself.
Also ordered a couple of things from amazon. I was looking into scangrip lights and noticed someone had mentioned the Astro lights on Detailer buddies on Facebook so I looked it up and decided to order one. This thing is insane. I was an idiot when I looked at it and tried to turn it on. I was blind for like 30 minutes. But it is worth the money. No need to pay insane money for the scangrip honestly.

If anyone is looking into scangrip I`d try this out. Hope everyone is doing well and I hope 2017 has started off well.

I`ll have to try some out! The only thing that confuses me is the two types of microfiber pads that LC makes. Like what`s the difference

Let me tell ya, this stuff smells FANTASTIC!! Swissvax is my first "high end" wax. I dunno how much to charge per application yet. It might not be any better than Nattys or Gold Class. Kinda like Apple and Beats I guess lol. But if I`m going to detail a black High end vehicle, I`m reaching for this.

So you could put that and that one that cost $30000 and you couldn`t tell? Maybe it`s the "I spent X on this small container" that makes it feel special? You can get a gallon of high tech yellow from meguiars for the price of this sample Onyx. People are really loving polish angel stuff but nobody did a 50/50 with Gold Zirkon Vs Gold class. One gallon megs glass cleaner makes 11 gallons for about $16 or Rupes/PA glass cleaner is $20 for a tiny sprayer and if you used both the results would be clean glass. I haven`t tried PA stuff yet though.

Swissvax Onyx Wax - Premium Carnauba Wax - Swissvax Onyx - standard wax for all types of paintwork. With 30% grade-one pure Brazilian carnauba wax by volume, this wax produces a streak free gloss and water repellent protection on all types of paint work. However, this formulation is not resistant to road salt and is therefore less appropriate for winter use.


^I found that last statement interesting.

let us know what you think of the wax once you get to use it

Super Plush are super high quality. I had just two of them.
The grit guard attachment is awesome. I can already tell I`m going to love it. I hope that sprayer is good for waterless washing because so far honestly its absolute crap. I had to do a bunch of adjustments so it stops leaking air when you pump it. Got some aggressive clay because I just detailed a car that had heavy contaminants. Got a famous brush for interior use. I also got the plastic razor with 100 blades. Got 3 pack of heavy pads as I was down to my last one. Nice haul, almost $200 spent. Oh well.

The 12mm mini polisher has a high quality feel to it, and is built like a tank! The price is right too!

Yes updates with a review would be nice. Price wise looks interesting for the hobbyist, pro`s may want to spend the extra coin on rupes or may not.

When my back gets better I will put it through it`s paces and do an honest review(no brand loyalty here). This is my first Adams product ever! The Adams mini polisher looks and feels high quality! Imho so far it`s pro worthy at half the cost of the Rupes. Hope someone who has a Rupes mini and a friend has a Adams mini could do a side by side review. I have no one around me, but hope someone else does.
