got rid of my trail stripes and did some detailing

i finally got tired of staring at all the pin stripes our hunting land so graciously gave me, so i set the day aside and treated the truck to a wash, clay bar, buffing and wax job.

here is before (there were alot more but these are the worst ones by far)





and after







here she is all polished up. (i put some wax on but it was dark when i finished so those pics will come later.)



im completely happy the way it turned out...paint feels smooth as silk . this will make u fall in love with ur truck all over again

 

looks real good!

 

Looks great!

 

what brand grille guard do you have?

 

Thanks everyone. The grille guard is made by Big Country or somethin like that. I've never heard of the brand but I been real happy with it

 

What products did you use on your truck?

 

Mothers clay bar kit, meguiars scratch x 2.0, and mothers carnauba wax. I've earned some more "badges" so I need to give it another treatment sometime.

 

Ok awesome I have most of that stuff. Did you use a buffer?

Yeah I have a ton myself and I'm selling my truck so I need to get rid of most of them.

 

looks very good

 

sick camper


and the truck looks good too

 

Yes I used a 7" variable speed buffer for the scratch removal and a 9" orbital for waxing. Be prepared to spend a few hours on this, but the result is well worth it.

And the camper is pretty cool too. 22 years old with 56k miles and the interior is amazing for the age. The 454 big block in it is fun too

 

What kinda buffer did u use? Looks nice

 

Pretty sure it's a neiko. Not a #1 brand, but it does good for my applications

I recently clay bared and waxed my truck and can't agree more. It really is amazing the difference it makes.
