Adam's Polishes: https://adamspolishes.com/
How have we not met until now -- and only then via coincidence. Mustangs, F-100s, and a laundry list of acquaintances in common.
Adam Pitale is the kind of guy who’s been obsessed with making things shine since he was a kid—literally starting by cleaning and polishing bikes as a pre-teen. That obsession turned into a hustle, then a business, and eventually into what we now know as Adam’s Polishes. He launched it back in 2000 in California, not from some grand plan, but because he needed to make a living—and figured there had to be a better way to keep things looking perfect.
Today, Adam’s built a global brand around that same mindset: a little obsessive, a little unconventional, and completely driven by doing things better than “good enough.” He’s the guy who’d rather wash a forklift—or Classic Ford —than let it stay dirty… and that pretty much tells you everything you need to know about how he shows up in business.
I coincidentally connected with Adam when I saw he was recently selling a classic Ford truck on Marketplace. Which I must add did finally close. Adam, welcome to the podcast.
I have at least a half dozen of your products sitting in my garage right now -- coincidence? I think not.

If you’ve ever caught Mustang fever, you know it doesn’t take much. Sometimes all it takes is one good friend, one beautiful ’65 Fastback, and one road trip through Chicago to make you realize there’s suddenly an empty space in your garage that desperately needs filling.
