2004.5 Dodge Ram 2500 (Black!)

[P1et]

So I decided that I was going to give the PC a try on my own vehicle.

1) Washed with Megs Gold Class
2) Clayed with Zaino Z-18
3) Poorboys SSR2.5 w/ PC on 5-6
4) Poorboys SSR2.5 w/ PC on 5-6
5) Poorboys SSR1 w/ PC on 5
6) Poorboys EX-P w/ PC on 3

All in all, I'm quite pleased. The truck had quite a few swirls and marks from claying incorrectly. I pretty much got them all out, which was frankly the main point in me getting a PC in the first place.

Cannot wait to see what a layer of Natty's Blue will do to it...

Here's a comment...holy mother of reflections Batman!!!

That reflection shot could easily be someone taking a picture of you. That is awesome. How did you like the EX-P from an application viewpoint? I have a bottle but haven't had a chance to try it out yet due to rain.

Great work man.... I like EX-P as well..... Although the new DP Sealant gives it a good run....
Topping it will make it look awesome Im sure.....
If you intend to keep this combo on for fall/winter, you might want to go another layer of EX-P... THEN top it....

Awesome turn around!! I love the money shot!! hehehehehehhehe

I really enjoy using EX-P. On the gray pad on 3, it goes on very smoothly. I left it on for about 45 minutes before removing and it left the surface extremely smooth with a great reflection. Actually, I think I enjoy it more than Z2 Pro as it's a lot easier to remove. I could apply that stuff all day long!

And yes, I will put another layer of it before putting on Natty's Blue to ensure even coverage...

Awesome, outstanding work! Posts some more pics after another layer of Natty's Blue.

You'll love Nattys Blue topping EX-P. The SSR line does have some fillers so if you want next time, do an Iso Alcohol wipedown or AIO and it will remove any fillings showing what real work was done. But actually the fillers might be better on a truck like that b/c I know with my buddies quad cab Cummins Ram, with long bed, is a beotch to even wash lol.

Glad that baby's a Cummins, manual or auto? Any work done? Buddies getting the new GMC with the new Duramax, not sure what he's going to do with the Ram which has some nice mods.

Awesome job. What a reflection! You done good.

Thanks everyone!

The truck has a 48RE, or the auto tranny. I was trying to find a 6-speed but I was offered such a good deal on this one that I couldn't turn it down. Haven't done anything to it apart from straight-piping it and putting in a high-flow air filter.

Hopefully I'll be putting on a layer for Natty's Blue next weekend! More pics then...
