This is my first show n' shine, and im pretty exicted. Did this job for a friend of mine who just got this truck off Craigslist. She enjoys the character it has and wanted a truck with a lot of imperfections. Boy did she find what she was looking for!
She got this from the original owner, an elderly man that likely never washed this truck and enjoyed eating hard candy and smoking methols inside.
The passenger door and hood were both faded more than the rest of the truck, and as I said, she likes the character it has so only wanted those two panels worked on.
Products/method:
Wiped down door with a wet microfiber to get off loose dirt (normally would do a better wash step, but both were pretty free of dirt and already insanely oxidized)
Clayed using mothers clay bar
1-step polish with Porter Cable 7424xp @ 6,000 OPM
Meg's Ultimate Polish
Orange LC CCS 5.5" foam pad
HD Poxy sealant
3M green tape
Initial condition:
