    work in progress

    Jeez, I think I'll never get though with my truck..
    I've been working at it a little at a time, here's some progress pics,
    and Thanks to all you guys for some very helpful info on how to make the paint on my truck look better than when it came off the showroom floor.
    Seriously________
    I'm doing it 1 fender at a time, first claying it, then using a medium cutting compound on a wool pad, then Meg's # 80 on a light cut foam pad, then with a polishing foam pad. "all rotary" but I do have a PC.
    Then comes the DG bonding agent and then DG sealer, then Natty's blue.. what a job, but it looks watery as hell now..
    The truck is only 28 mos. old, but I've ridden to 68k miles already..

    Wow, that looks great!!! BTW, you're very lucky to live within driving distance of AG! Just hope you don't go broke . I really like that hood, can't say I've ever seen one like it on a truck. It looks great. Job very well done.

    Thanks for the positive comments guys.
    I just picked up an edge adapter for the rotary and a pad Friday and I am gonna try it out here in few hours, also have the Pinnacle Spray Wax now to keep the 2 coats of Natty's in great shape.
    Having AG close by will certainly affect my budget, but in a good way..
