Adams H20 Vs anything else

Post by Ytmsn »

Some of you may have heard me talk about Adams polish. About the same time I ordered this stuff, I had also fell for the hype on Facebook and ordered a bottle of top coat. If you watch the videos on topcoat they seem like they make sense? So I tried some on the water line on one side of my boat. On the other side I used Adams.

I can tell you hands down the Adams is the best product. Not only is it only $20 a bottle, but it works really good.(TopCoat is $60) The scum line is super easy to clean. I clean it with Starbright Hull cleaner and then come back with a coat of Adams.

Now I use it on the whole boat every time I wipe it down with a wet towel. Then I come back afterwards with a really light buff and the results are spectacular. There's supposed to be some chemical reaction when you put it on with the wet rag and it causes the molecules to seal according to the guys at Adams. They said you could apply it dry as well, but it works best with a damp towel. BB can testify as he's used it a couple of times on his boat.

I think the biggest difference is the scum line. It is super easy to come off after you have Adams on there. Especially after a couple of coats. So you guys that are about to pull your boats and winterize? I highly recommend this stuff!

I would also day don't do it in direct sun. If you do just bring the damp cloth with you as it didn't come off I just saw smear marks. Once I just touched it with a damp cloth it was perfect. I'll say the side of my boat is like glass. I use it in our showers as well in the house.

They have a bunch of products. All I've used is the H2O Sealer and Gloss and the detail spray. Good stuff
