Dodge 2500 one step

[House of Wax]

Been a crazy busy summer personally, so I haven't gotten squat for detailing done. Finally had a spare day to squeeze a job in, and boy was it a butt kicker. Customer only wanted a one step, but there's a lot of real estate with this bad boy. No crazy project, but I haven't posted any work in awhile, so I figured I'd share

And all finished up. Didn't have much light by the time I was done, so some the shots aren't real great and some are pretty grainy. Felt good to get a job in and the truck turned out pretty good. It's a beautiful vehicle. Customer was thrilled (got a nice tip ;) ) and it sounds like his dad is going to be bringing me his 2016 Duramax after seeing this truck finished. Thanks for lookin:

Outstanding. :props:

If you drive to the owner without letting him know you're coming, he would probably think it's a newer one not realizing that's his. Really nice work.

And I'm sold on HD Speed.

[LEDetailing]

I know someone other than the Dodge's owner who loves Weathertechs. Didn't look horrible before, honestly. Looks great after. Those wheel wells look perfect. Nice work

HD Speed is an awesome product. One polish that I should have ordered by the gallon. I haven't gotten to use it on black yet, but I look forward to giving it a try.

Thanks. Yeah, it's in great shape. Was just dirty. Cleaned up great though.

[Sicoupe]

You did one heck of a job my friend!

[Pristine Image]

Well done!

[PaulMys]

Very nice!!!!!!! You got that paint looking awesome. Would look a lot better if Ram didn't have so much damn orange peel in their paint. I know. I own one. :/

HD Speed is a miracle in a bottle. :)

[ScottH]

Great job!! I just did a black Tahoe and that is smaller than the 2500 you did and took 8 hours! How many did you put in on this beauty?

[House of Wax]

thanks guys.

had around 9 hours in it

[PaulMys]

thanks guys.

That is amazing. That truck was horrible looking when it came to you. Looks like you spent 2 days on it.

[House of Wax]

thanks man

[Celabe]

Nice, job what a turnaround, I'll bet the owner felt like he got a new truck, grinning every time he looks at it
