    Ahh, well it's a good thing u do NOT know how to do that then... lol dang. Nor want to purchase all the numatic tools and attachments. Soo either I leave it or shop does it. It's got 216k miles and it's getting some rust on rockers so it's very hard deciding what exactly to do and howmuch $ to dump into the rust rust fixing. Definately getting into offroading now so I'm sure more minor-bigger damage is to come. You ever think sometimes our trucks are just too damn beautiful to offroad and damage? Hahaha

    Get some Meguiar's clear coat safe polish and do it by hand. A power polisher may add swirls or burn the paint if you don't know how hard to polish.
    Always start by hand and then work up to a machine. A lesson I learned the hard way.

    It's not too bad if you let the product do the work. Use the right polish and use a lot of it. Too little product and you're just burning paint.

    More things I learned the hard way :)

    Youtube would be ok, but not pornhub. I would have never left my parents house if that was around in the 80's.
