Cleaning up 98 GMC 2500

Recommended Posts

I have slowly started the process of bring back the paint on my 98 GMC 2500 that I bought new. The paint is showing its age and wash marks. So I am using my new Flex for the first time. It's doing amazing.

I'm also using my newly learned process of using detail spray along with the 2 step process. No more biting compound onto the paint.

So far I've cleaned, 2 step cut and polish, brilliant glaze and LPS on the hood, tailgate, passenger door and fender. It's looking better then the day I bought it.

I still have a lot of work left. Then onto the tires and wheel wells.

Here you go Brian.

 

It's a fairly mild build. I wanted to keep it as my nice day cruiser and showable car. My Black TA is the wild one. I have a video in my sig of the black car.

I need to work these 2 over with some Adams next sometime this winter.

Yeah. They picked it up off the track and I put it back in place and drove back to the pits. Strapped it down and drove 45 minutes back home. It only has minor stress cracks in it from that flight and impact. Gotta love a full lift off hood, it doesn't just lay back over the windshield.

That pass was on a small shot of nitrous and pump gas for the street.

Thanks. We always planed for it to be street able, I don't own a trailer and there aren't many single digit street cars up here.

It's a blast on the street. Especially sitting in traffic next to someone on a cell phone because they can't hear their call. Lol

I plan on setting it on kill after I figure out this wiring issue and seeing what it'll do. I'm thinking on a good tune up it should be about 9.50's, around 9.20's-9.10's on kill.
