    Re: Brand New Truck - Looking to Keep it Looking Nice

    Skip the dawn soap..just use car soap without gloss enhancer or wax in it you should be good...If you use clay bar make sure you don't mar the paint use enough lubricant.

    Re: Brand New Truck - Looking to Keep it Looking Nice

    I think I'm going to keep it simple until I acquire a DA

    • Wash
    • IronX
    • Wash
    • Clay
    • Wash (Again)
    • Collinite 845
    • Hit the external trim with 303

    Thank you all for your help and guidance.

    Re: Brand New Truck - Looking to Keep it Looking Nice

    In a moment of weakness I decided to go ahead and use the KAIO after the Clay. It seemed to help the Colli go on smoothly. Second coat of Colli next week.

    I must say either the original or the purchasing dealer did a good job. Very little fallout indicated by the IronX or the clay. Not like my '05 Canyon replaced by the F150.

    This color is called Blue Jeans and looks different depending on the light.

    Here are some shots:

    Hit the exterior trim with some 303 and added another coat of Collinite. Even more shiny. Very pleased how I can just hose off the pollen in now.
    I do want to wax the wheels next wash.
    Thanks AutoGeek

    The results are nice! Enjoy the super slick paint that Collinite gives you. I swear it’s more reflective the second day after completion.
