Default Wow, I'm now an Adams believer!

I've been looking for leather, vinyl, plastic and trim product that will apply evenly and just look good for quite sometime now. I currently have Zaino, BlackFire, 303 in my current arsenal and most just don't work well for me for one reason or another.

Well, I've been reading all these good things about Adams VRT, Leather conditioner and in and out spray. All I can say is wow..... I used the VRT on the plastic and vinyl in the car and the trim outside; I have never used a product that worked so well and looked so damn good! I used the In and Out spray in the engine bay on all the plastic and hoses looks awesome and then the leather conditioner on the leather dash, door panels it was a little too shinny so I just took a microfiber cloth and wiped it down and boom, perfect sheen. I have to say I'm sold, I still have the car wash to try but the car is stored so won't be until spring. Go get some!

I agree that Adams products are great , but just for your information, the Corvette dash is not leather so watch what you put on it......WW

All leather, including the dash is plastic coated, so be careful what is put on it. Leather conditioners actually cause more damage.
A damp microfiber is all that is needed.

Use a damp cloth. It's not like a horse saddle

Good info. The fact that automobile leather is plastic-coated should be a sticky in ALL CAPS since it has been repeated here many times and most people don't know.
