  • I ordered from ADS today!

    Well, today was the day. I buckled down and ordered a list of stuff from ADS. $145 worth of stuff, to be exact. Well, not really - that total included shipping, . My order is supposed to arrive Tuesday September 8. I shall be watching my tracking info and keeping an eye on my precious cargo. My order consisted of:

    1 gallon of APC
    1 gallon of APC+
    1 gallon of Last Touch
    1 gallon of Shampoo Plus
    32 oz. sampler of Glass Cleaner Concentrate
    M04 (for cleaning glass - see this thread)
    3 Ultimate Wipes
    3 Supreme Shines
    3 D102 All Purpose Carpet Cleaner Aerosol
    2 APC bottles
    2 APC+ bottles
    2 Last Touch bottles
    1 glass cleaner bottle
    4 standard sprayers
    2 chemical resistant sprayers

    I spoke to Rick over the phone. He was very nice and answered all my questions. I'm sure I will be ordering from him again.

    On another note, I got a detailing job, one that does not involve one of our cars. The car is a red 2002 Ford Mustang convertible. A guy that my dad works with bought it for his wife for her birthday (which is next Monday), and he wants me to detail it for him before then. She already knows he's giving it to her. So that will be what I will be doing this Saturday evening and Sunday morning, although I hope to have most of it done Saturday night. So be expecting a write-up on that. I'm looking forward to it. Also, I will provide pics (probably in this thread) whenever my goodies arrive. September 8, come soon!

            Yes, I am now an official MOL member, ha ha! I can't wait for my order! I still can't believe I just spent $145 on "cleaning supplies", but hey, it's Meguiar's, so it's worth it!

                  Here's where my packages are now:

                  Location: Mesquite, TX
                  Date: 9/03/09
                  Local time: 10:34 AM

                  My stuff is getting closer! I have 2 boxes, a total of 53 pounds. I'm excited!

                  Quick question that just occurred to me: When diluting the Detailer Line products, what kind of water should you use? Can you use water out of the tap, or should you use spring or distilled water?

                    I always use plain tap water.

                        Tap water is fine.

                        Maybe if it is rediculously hard water, and it is something you were to leave on the paint, you would want to Brita it at least or something.

                          The only thing that gets distilled/purified water is when I dilute the glass cleaner, otherwise everythng else gets regular tap water...

                              How come you got the D Line Carpet cleaner if you bought a gallon of APC Plus?

                              Both great products, I actually stopped buying the aerosol can since I was going through a can a day. APC Plus is the bomb on carpet and upholstery though.
