Is it just me....

I enjoy washing my truck for sure I like seeing my results and trying new stuff especially since this is my first black truck.

 

Lol, I absolutely HATE washing/waxing my truck, but IMO the black sand pearl paint looks damn awful when it isn't clean. Call me stupid, but I wash and wax weekly. I do so because we have bad acid rain here on the Big Island (Hawaii) from the volcanic gases. Even though I wash/wax weekly my paint still has some pretty bad acid rain spots and my glass also. Clay bar hasn't helped that much, so I'm pretty much screwed.

 

Which side of the island are you on? the Ace up mauka kona side sells a waterspot remover that worked pretty well on my windows. If not, a good polish or white vinegar should do the trick for the spots.

An no worries brah, I wash mine as much as I can too. Drive down Ali'i drive a lot, so I pass by the beach daily....get paranoid about the salt

 

Like washing, hate waxing.

 

I'm from Waimea but going school at UH Hilo, so my truck spends most of its time in Hilo. Been looking for a good way to remove those spots off of the glass, I'll keep in mind what you recommended.

Haha yeah I'm pretty paranoid about salt too. Hell, whenever I drive into Hilo and the ocean looks even a little rough, I avoid driving over the singing bridge as you enter Hilo and take the other way around (the one that comes out by the post office). My friends think I'm weird but eh, as long as the truck stays in top shape thats all that matters

 

Screw the rest, I like driving an OILY truck! haha

try put some rubbing compound or white vinegar on a microfiber cloth and rub it on the glass with a decent amount of pressure, and do small areas at a time- should take care of those waterspots

 

That's my problem right there

 

she has a face?

 

I like washing it, drying it, and I'm gonna wax it up for the first time tomorrow

 

Nah your not lazy, its a truck for goodness sake!

 

Hate it.... Once a year Wash and Zaino.. The rest of the time its Automatic car washes if it gets road splashed in the rain. Otherwise I don't bother......

Silver.......E A S Y and dirt is invisible LOL

I have my vehicles professionally detailed, dings removed, bumper painted if needed, just before I am ready to sell or trade them.

 

i use to, then i got old, now i wash once a month about

 

I actually finished detailing my truck this weekend. I got to use Chemical Guys Black Light for the first time and WOW! That stuff is the real deal! I highly recommend it .

 

I wash and wax mine like every 3 weeks to a month, silver shows very little dirt untill it's really dirty. Meguires Quick Wax ftw, I can do my whole truck in about 15 minutes. Then I'll use some mothers back-to-black on all my black trim. I can't find any clay bar around here tho.

 

i like the look of mine washed but it looks good with mud on it too, it has o be a nice day with nothing to do for me to wash it tho

 

No I clicked here looking for boobs. Man what a let down.

But seriously my 1999 needs new paint. The hood and roof are shot....

 

mmm. face is a bit beat but rest is nice.

 

That sir is Amy Reid if i'm not mistaken. The shadow on her face though throws it off. She is SUPER HOT!

 

you are mistaken suthrn....... gosh i have to come in and clean up your mistakes all the time



jk man had to give you a hard time on one of your posts that was outside the alabama thread.....

 

hahaha so I know the guy who took this... along with alot other um much better ones.

The panama green car you see behind her is a car called the Chaos4000 (3rd gen 3000GT) and the guy's name is Robert aka FTV Rob. The car is now repainted orange though.

If anyone wants to cross-reference what I am saying, check out ftvgirls.com (NSFW it IS an adult site) based out of Phoenix, AZ

Rob now also has a new GTR and last I talked to him he was considering an Audi R8

*attached is the same car, for Alison Angel's site but taken originally for FTV*

But to keep this thread specific, I have not detailed the truck yet but I will
