I know pics hide a lot but this actually looks fantastic.

Wash
Clay
Wash
Dry

Wolfgang Swirl Remover 3.0 (first time using it....Not bad) with a white CCS Pad
Took 2 passes in certain spots. But Im sure It would have taken one pass if I didnt get impatient using my UDM. Went real slow over most of it.
Removed haze with a THICK NEON Green Cobra microfiber towel

3M Performance Finish (Paint sealer) VERY hard to get off if the sun shines as it drys. Much easier in the shade.

Pinnacle Souveran Liquid Wax (Got this off BOGO. Didnt really notice any more shine than after the WG3.0 and 3M Sealant. No added depth, But the truck still looked like a mirror.
Very watery. And I shook it before every dose on my pad. Used 1/3 of a bottle for this truck.

Hyperdressing on all plastic and chrome polish on rims bumpers and grill.

Interior was spotless after I vacuumed and used a bissell pro heat auto on the mats.
Cleaned the leather, dash and all trim with an orange pad and mild APC. Wiped down with a wet microfiber. Windows done with Invisible Glass. Wheel wells cleaned and protected.

Door jams cleaned then sprayed with Sonus Carnuba Spray wax.

Eager to use my new rotary and menzerna next time. Customer was more than happy. I could have done better i think with different products and pads. But Im still in the research phase with all that.
Im the MAN

Looks great to me. I actually prefer not to do trucks or SUVs because I just get impatient after a while.

I used a little plastic polish on the lenses and the bug flector to get the dullness and swirls out too. and used this great chrome polish I i have on the rims, grill, bumper.

Hyperdressing on tires soaking in. Then buff with a cloth to get the excess Shine off.

Hey Matt,

Yeah I aint gonna lie.....Not only did that truck take me almost 9 hours NON STOP but I was SORE as hell the next day. THing kicked my butt. And I did the whole truck with a UDM.

As soon as I post this Im going to order my makita, pads, and 4 bottles of different Menzerna Polishes! I did 3 details like this in the past week and Im ready to step up my game and practice on Junkers!

Word of mouth is spreading FAST. People are just blown away. Its kinda cool. :dblthumb2:
