2002 Dodge Dakota Detailed. What Do You Think?

**dakotaRT** · 04-09-2016, 06:37 PM

This is my 2002 Dodge Dakota RT (Fully Restored). Just finished detailing it with the a three step process, Polish, Glaze, Wax using a DA Polisher. How do you think it turned out?
Next step for my Dakota are some beautiful chrome rims!!
You might not believe me, but I am only 16 years old and love to detail cars.

During the weekends, I detail cars for my neighborhood and also do Aerial Photography / Videography for Real Estate and Private uses. I will hope to gain my experience in the next Thursday Night Detail Session with Mike Phillips.

The pictures are a bit lacking in detail but overall it looks very nice. We have no idea how it looked prior to your work also.

Looking very nice.

How about some specifics on products, tools, etc?

I'd skip the chrome wheels though, some dual black machined wheels would look much better.

Ultra Phantom Machined w/Black Accent

Ultra Drifter Machined w/Black Accent

KMC XD Series XD809 Riot Machined w/Black Accent

Products Used:

I'm digging those wheels! Will be doing much more research, but the XD Series might be the ones I will be going for!

Yeah, if your budget permits it. Those were my favorite too.

Skip the glaze next time and stick with Poxy, it's awesome on black on it's own.

You're doing awesome, I know I wasn't at your level at 16

This is Adapt and Poxy

Glad to see another young entrepreneur on here! I'm 18 and started my detailing business in 7th grade.

Thank You! I get a lot of grim looks for being only 16, but I try to be the most professional as possible. Next on the list are some detailing t-shirts so that I can detail in style!
Like you said, I will skip the glaze next time and just use Polish, Poxy. I finally got my HD Speed in, and it is amazing! Used it on my neighbors Caddy and she fell in love with how it turned out!
