I've been wanting to try the pinnacle LS for some time now. Some of you may now, some not but I won a 50 pad lot of 3M 4inch Waffle Polishing Pads awhile back. Let me tell ya matched with the PC7336 they have really impressed me. I got the 4 inch back plate from AG and since have been using it every detail. The 4inch takes longer but tight spots are easy to manuver around, and also the size makes you go slower and you get a better result.

Last time I posted I cleaned my truck up and put a sealant on from one of my bulk distributors. This product is guranteed to last 6 months. Well I got the ol' bottle of Pinnalce LS out and said lets put it on top and see what we get. Just see for yourself !! :righton:

I really appreciate that ^ !! I just know that I learned alot from Autogeek and wouldn't look anywhere else. This forums members have really been the nicest most informative people I've really ever met. I can't even think of better site I would rather look at.

(Rolling Mirror's) You crack me up Justin !

beautiful pics ..... looks like some light swirls in pic two where the sun reflects. It the jagged edges catching the sun. Either use RMG before the Pinnacle or repolish when needed. (nitpicking)

Good catch ! I just basically topped my old stuff with Pinnacle LS. I would really like to throw a shocker in there too. I didn't want to freeze so I used the MEGS body brush to wash the whole truck (OUCH) Black toooooo !! Turned out good for a brush wash IMO.

Yea thats the one piece besides the fiberglass flares that are orange peeled real bad. The flares are like that on all tacoma's. I guess with people 4-wheeling and all the tree branches scraping the sides I guess it's easier to buff out on a orange peel'd surface, and get the deep scratches out... ??

That looks great ehuth1. I really like Liquid Souveran. It did a great job on my wife's white car.

Looks great btw, what suspension kit is on it? How does it drive?

nah its nothin to do with that, its a matter of companies mass producing vehicles and laying the coats on quick and heavy. i think ford tailgates are the worst of all orange peels. although now that you mention it, its somewhat rare to see a tacoma that clean!
