So, I washed and clayed yesterday. This is going to be a few day process.

Here is the hood after washing and claying.

Other parts were too dark to get a good picture and I didn't have a proper light with me.

Did you notice a significant difference? :)

Did you notice a significant difference? :)

Difference in...?

[hernandez.art13]

Texture/brightness/smoothness etc...

What are you going to apply after you clay?

Great Job btw

[CBlack]

After claying it looked a lot better, but then again it always does, right? ;)

There are water spots and some minor scratches it looks like, so I'll be doing a light polish then Blacklight.

Topping it all off with BFWD then Black Ice! :D

All taped up and ready to go...

So last night/early morning I took to 105 in select spots and 205 all over to remove water spots and some light swirls.

I used the GGDA with both Megs and LC MF pads.

Here's a before pic on the hood.

And this is on the hood. Not sure what it is but it looks like bubbling. It's been there since I bought the truck and has not gotten worse.

I can't wait to see what Blacklight looks like now.

That's next.
