Re: Silverado facelift
Finally 2 step correction today, had to wait 30 days post both b4 sealing the paint.
Plan was to use gyeon pure evo, and top with cure for safety as its supposed to rain next couple days. Mother nature gave me a middle finger as i was half done polishing. And continued to sprinkle on and off for the next hour or two.
Quick thinking, i figured id forgo trying to apply pure evo right now and snagged 3d poxy and buzzed around the finished panels. Worked inbetween sprinkles and finished polishing. In the end gave a final wipe down with 3d bead it up.
Figured in a couple weeks or when weather is better i can do a carpro descale, and bilt hamber on the truck and strip the clear bare and apply pure evo then.
Flex rotary rupes blue coarse wool pads 3d aca 510 for 1st step.
Flex supa beast white lc force hybrid pads 3d aat502 for 2nd step.
Honestly didnt think it looked any different until i took a picture of it. And got a compliment when i went to store get some beer.

Re: Silverado facelift
Nice work. With the elevated prices of new and used vehicles, I would be safe to say people are holding on to what they have longer. And spending the money on what they need to keep it or put it right.

Re: Silverado facelift
Very nice. I had the same truck at one time.....put 141k on it before getting a Tundra. Always hated those trim pieces

Re: Silverado facelift
Thanks folks! The truck aint perfect but better than most of others out there of the classic body style.
Figure i get a couple more years outta it, by then hopefully gm comes out with something decent looking. Got used to to many years without a truck payment, dont want to start now lol. Hell a full repsray of the whole thing would be cheaper.
And yeah those trim pieces was always an eye sore, so much cleaner of a look when removed
