Detailed: Red F-150 Review new stuff!!!

[sparkie]

Washed 99 F-150
I done this truck over a week ago, I wanted to see how these new products work out. I see it about every day, owner lives across the street from me.

Paint Polish (only on the hood and roof)
Menzerna Power Gloss Compound S34A (NEW this stuff is amazing)
This was the first time I’ve used this product. The hood and roof was so bad
with water spots. I would have thought it needed wet sanding. But Menzerna power Gloss compound took charge and kick butt. It removed the water spots and
scratches. It’s the best heavy cut compound I ever used. No haze or micro maring at all. It did cut through the toughest paint damage on this truck. I believe you can go right to LSP after this product. I used it with Edge orange pad which I think it was a little too strong of a pad. I believe I could have used the blue pad. I did get dusting but not as bad as Megs #83 or #4. It finished with the gloss and smoothness of a lite cut polish. I give this product 5 stars.

Paint Polish #2 (new)
Duragloss Marine RV Polish #501
I know it’s for boats and RV, but it works awesome on vehicles paints.
Talk about one heck of a cleaner, this is it. My yellow pad was turning black from the ground in dirt. It removed the oxidations quick. It left behind a very slick shine. I used it with Edge orange pad. It’s like AIO or #101 on steroids. This may be the strongest cleaner/sealant I have used to date. Thanks Big Al...
I give this product 5 stars.

LSP
Duragloss #951

Outside Glass
DG #751 Rain Repel

Outside Plastic and rubber.(new)
Duragloss Marine & R/V Protectant #531
I was very frustrated with this product at first. On the grey plastic it went on very watery and strikes like heck. I was like What The! This stuff sucks! Well I remembered Big Al saying, give it time. So that’s what I did. I knew the owner real well, and told him give it one day and if the plastic still looks bad I have something that will take care of it. On the black plastic it work fine.
The next day he came by and told me you are the man. I ask what you are talking about. He said my bed rail (gray plastic) looks brand new. Sure enough it did. Even the black plastics look deeper and richer. This product dose not shine like 303 or #201, it has more of a matt look a brand new plastic look. I’m planning on using this on my truck for testing in the near future. After seeing
it the next day I give it 4.5 stars on plastic. I took away .5 due to it took until the next day.
Rubber is another story, it reminded me of Poorboy’s trim restorer I had strikes and they remain. I believe the rubber was oxidized. I will be testing this on my vehicles. As of now on rubber 0 stars.

Outside glass (new)
Duragloss #755 Nu-Glass
It’s a blend of cleaners and selected abrasives formulated to remove water spots from glass surfaces. Removes water spots without scratching the glass surface. Can be applied by hand or mechanical buffer. Works real nice using green pad and buffer set on a 1000.
I got to say this is the first time I removed spots from glass with out steel wool. The product will dust a lot. Even works with a microfiber towel. See this Surfer!!!!!

Looks great Sparky...nice job.....nice Red also....every thing came out nice....engine really looks good....

The #531 really amazed me as far as its cleaning....I washed the truck...did a quick Menz PO85rd fine polish....wipe it all down...and used 531 with a PC on the fender...blue pad was black...it was hot so I did the rest by hand...I used 4 pads on the polish pal since they were turning black.....amazing what's on paint even after a strong wash...a polishing....its like road soot embedded in the paint...

anyways..it left a nice slick gloss to it...it is my 101 replacement...still going strong now....dirt just falls off with water.....it is very solvent smelling ..no peaches and grape smell there...lol....

Nice Job...glad you tried it and like it...

Yeah, no kidding. And probably have to add #501 and #531.

Man sparkie I've missed your details bro, but this is a wicked way to say I'm back just look at that gloss and the color just looks wet...very nice work bro. I always enjoy your write up too they are

Oh and welcome to the Menzerna, that power gloss compound works great and it packs a punch. Oh and I'm almost getting the hang of the power gloss compound and wool pads almost getting it LSP and with out swirl marks but I still go over it with 106FF and depending on the vehicle I'll go an extra step and go to Final Polish II (but like I said it depends on the vehicle and the color)....man that vehicle looks very nice.

Good to have you back spark dude and great job bro.
