    Looks 1000% better, nice work.

    Constructive criticism:

    You missed some dust/dirt around the transfer case housing. Just messing with you
    Heh, I was well aware of it. I do appreciate the criticism tho! he came out and put some mulch down for me and trimmed all the bushes in my yard in exchange for me cleaning his truck. So no money was involved. I was 4 hours into the job and was out of time and couldn't keep chasing the small spots of dirt that were being a pain.

    Thanks!

    No, he's already listed it for sale and I wouldn't be surprised if it's already gone. It was a GMC 3500 converted to a dump truck. Not exactly anything that could really benefit from a proper detail anyway.

    Works great, smells great. Can't ask for much more. I work in direct sunlight all the time so the fact that it's made for that is excellent.

    Shane,

    We have a Tahoe at work with rubber flooring. I've spent time trying to clean the flooring and it looks no where near as clean as that Sierra.

    Glad you and your friend both got something out of each others services.

    I call BS. That's a different truck -- same make and model, but different truck!


    Incredible work, Shane.

    While I initially cringe at first seeing these types of jobs I enjoy the final results because of the HUGE difference the owner sees! Beautiful work there, my friend.

    I love seeing trashed vehicles get cleaned up like this. How do you like the blackfire protectant? I've been using aerospace 303 forever, but am always curious about what else is out there.

    Ive liked it. It works great and leaves a nice satin finish IF you buff it a few minutes after application. Not buffing leaves more of a semi gloss finish (yuck). Im on my last spray bottle refill from the gallon I purchased well over a year ago and actually have a gallon of 303 on the way. Should have it tomorrow

    Re: Trashed grounds maintenance truck

    Wow that is impressive.

    Wondering if you know how well the products you use hold up and reject/repel dust?
    Or if you had experiences with exterior products in this kind of environment?

    My own work truck takes this kind of abuse/assault from dirt, grime and poop. My overall end goal is something I can just rinse off daily and have it look presentable, while doing rinseless washes every 2-3 weeks and majors every 3-4 months.
