    2016 Roush F150 - The PERFECT Truck Get's the Full Treatment

    So another member of a racing forum I'm a part of, has a great daily driver. This custom ordered Roush F150 Platinum with a Supercharged Coyote Pushing 550+whp and over 520wtq is IMO the flat out nicest F150 I've seen. It's lowered just a wee-bit in order to fit it in his oversized/deep garage that for a number of reasons didn't offer the hieght he needed.

    The vehicle came to me in pretty clean shape but the trim was in need of good refresh to help make the overall package "POP" and that was the key goal here. The overall package includes ceramic coatings over everything; Paint, Glass, Wheels and Trim. Now touch-less washes and maybe a minor wipe down by him if he's up to it are all that will be needed to meet his needs of maintaining this Tri-Color Pearl White Beast.

    Just to show off a bit of how faded things were getting, let's look at the tonneau cover. Here I had already coated the separator rails but not the inside portion. What a difference! Now it will stay dark for a long while and I did provide him a nice application spray that will help maintain it's looks over time since it will take quite a beating from the sun and elements.







    My what a difference once it was all restored to the original new color and satin finish









    Overall, the only disappointment was again, weather. This paint really needs mother nature to shine the sun on her to wake up the metallic flake and show the best of it, but with hazy to cloudy skies and very little to no sun, pics are as good as I could with what time I had.












    I love the aluminum wheels. So raw yet clean and perfect for the color












    Did I say it was the top of the line Platinum Trim? Now it shines like that too










    I love the fact that the amber signals don't show from a dead on front view and the LED's speak for themselves when the lights are on.











    The chrome and now dark black trim really set off the front end







    The sound matches it's looks and power thanks to a Full Borla Exhaust. Sound clip in-hand and coming as an update since it's so perfect. Not too "LOUD" but deep and muscular so when started and rolling down the street, people won't complain but they will definitely know it's not stock. They look great too and are now coated just like the wheels.








    Steps Involved:


    • Washed with Hose/Bucket and some higher PH Soap to remove any muck from the winter
    • Decontaminated with both Iron X and a Medium Nano Mitt with small areas of Tarminator to remove some road tar.
    • Polished with my Rupes Mille, Yellow Mille Pad and CarPro Essence
    • Coatings involved were CarPro Cquartz UK 3.0, McKee's 37 Glass Coating, GYEON Q2 RIM and GYEON Q2 TRIM
    • Meg's Hot Shine Tire Dressing
    • CarPro Reload to help protect her while the curing process completes

    Nice job, looks like a real sleeper! I think that white looks better in indirect light as it really glows and doesn't get washed out

    Nice work on that bad A truck! You would never know what it's packing under the hood if you missed that small badging! Very nice.

    Wow!!! That's one of the nicest looking trucks i think i've ever seen. What you did to all the "blacks" really sets it off.

    Beautiful work, my friend.

    Very NICE!

    That White Tri-coat is beautiful. It is also an extra 600 bucks.

    I work at a Ford dealer, and that paint really DOES pop in the sun.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.
