Did this job at 7am today. Sun still wasn't up, but it made for a nice cool detail. Total time. 4 Hours.

The truck was in decent shape, customer is now converting it to his nice weather car. Once small problem was the stained paint and oxidation. The megs #80 cleaned it up quick though. Only taking a few passes. The car was also clayed with Blue magic (blue) clay.

Awesome finish Scott, love the truck!

[scottgt]

Nope, did i not post enough tehe ;)

I feel weird taking pics while doing a detail...i feel it gets in the way of me detailing. Weird coming from a photographer i know :)

But i wanted to get some shots for the website and for the owner to show him the detail put into detailing a car.

[Old Pirate]

It can out awesome!:cheers:

[dannythekid]

Excellent work!

[wytstang]

Absolutely love Lightnings great job. How are you liking UPP? Have you done any durability testing?

[Meghan]

Attention to detail for sure... great job Scott, you did not miss detailing an inch of that truck!

[Jimmie]

Four hours. You got after that one. She looks great.

I absolutely love UPP. An awesome shine as you can see and awesome durability. I have had it on my White Scion Xb (detailing Car) which is outside everyday to all the elements for 3 months and it is still kicking strong. Great beading on top and sheating on the sides. Im telling you..this is my go to product on all cars. That was the first vehicle i have used polycharger on and i cant wait to see how long that last. Everyone should have this stuff. Easy on and easy off. Awesome stuff!!!!!!

Wow 3 months, that is freakin fantastic. Before WG found it's way on my car UPP was my sealant but durability was poor. If folks are getting 2 months out of it then they have done a great job improving it. Hmmm there may be a WG vs UPP side by side that needs to be done.

[scottgt]

well plus it now has polycharger :0
