Adam:
Thanks for the quick reply.
This might be 'new ground' and maybe a challenge. I drive (semi) truck for a living. I just bought a new Kenworth with a custom sleeper. (See my album for pictures). I have always tried to keep my trucks looking nice. As you might imagine this is a big, pun intended, job. In the summer I have to deal with bugs and the winter salt and road chemicals. I use Blue Beacon truck washes most of the times. They use a lot of chemicals in their washes. Mostly what they call 'brightener' for cleaning/washing. Brightener is just a friendly name for acid, yes acid it is something that works for big trucks. I usually always have them add 'hot wax' after the wash, it seems to help with the shine.
On past trucks I have usually used a 'cleaner wax' as many times during the year I can. This might only be 1 or 2 times a year. The major problem I have run into is the front wind faring. This area gets lots and lots of bugs and it might be a couple of weeks between washes. The truck wash will do a desent job of getting bugs off, but there is always some guts,residue,that always gets left behind and ends up leaving stains in the paint. This new truck will be especially bad with the front of the sleeper that is above the cab.
I am looking for the best possible protection,(wax,polish) that is available and hold up. As you might imagine I won't be able to clean, wax, polish every week.
Do you think your Machine SuperWax is the best choice?
There is also a lot of polished aluminum,(wheels and fuel tanks) and stanless on this truck. Polished aluminum is always a challenge to keep looking nice. The truck stops are full of different wheel polishes. I've never found anything that worked that well. I might try your metal polishes.
Thanks.
