Truckie

I did glaze first because when I called in.... thats what they told me to do???????

OK, so once I am done with the truck.... complete detail. wash ,clay,polish, glaze ,seal, Americana..... I don't drive a ton...( only 3000 miles since January and a bunch of that was to lift shops, dealer etc) Game plan is to detail spray for touch ups, Next full wash, dry and keep Americana fresh..... Is this correct thinking???? should I be re-glazing, sealing and waxing at the full washes???? over the glaze seal Americana on there already?

OK no one jumped on this.... It was a trick anyway..... the pics were taken after wash/ dry, claybar only.... been working away . trying to get it all complete.... maybe I will be finished tomorrow......

How about a black (or other popular trim colors) plastic Dye... like FOREVER BLACK or the gel form Bondo RESTORE BLACK.... An improved ADAMS version "of course" extra UV protectors, and maybe a version you don't have to be soooo careful with and mask every thing off. keeps black trim nice for over a year..... was even able to turn my daughters sport trac "Gray" bumpers and rockers Black for that murdered out look.... I can post pics if you want to see once I find them.... oh and worked miracles on the ChevySSR running boards that get notoriusly white when water sits on them....

A ton of work!!! I am STILL not done MY 4door F250...... hopefully tomorrow..... still gotta do P/S doors and then wax roof, seal rims, dress tires, plastics, and do the inside.... weather hasn't helped and lifted so won't fit in garage..... Sun came out today and products dried too quick on paint tons of dust and pad wear....... .. but making progress I gotta get back to working out.... thats easier..... If a full correction is $1000 for a big truck..... It would be more cost effective to get it CAMO wrapped.....

AHhhhhyyy... back in Philly thats where we got the CEMENT shoes

So far so good... but not what I wanted to here......

"Man that's a LOT of black!" Yes it is!!! but it is not just black.... they got smart and made it a tri color fleck black.... It really helps find the dirt that plain old black shows... Last new truck was black... I said never New and Never black again....... Now look at me..... Good thing I found Adams....

You are partially correct... I did not hit the trim yet or tires wheels.... I think you are seing the clouds that were moving in .... just the paint detail was worked on..... ************************************************************************************* As for the Vette wheels/Brakes... gonna do some sort of coated rotor when the brakes are ready and either replace or powdercoat or paint the calipers..... wheels either need to be replaced or re finished profressionally., $$$$.... but are good for now unless you get right up on them.....

F250 1st detail results----- Props to the master detailer that can tell me what is wrong with my detail..... lets see who figures it out..... or see if it is really obvious........

before and after DWC Vette wheels

gonna try the pic thing now..... all my old pics r gone?????

Alchohol next time... spoke with ashley... added some APC and washesd again still beading moving on..... drying now clay next. While its drying I am using my Deep Wheel on the Vette....... works well..... just also shows how neglected wheels have been by other owners

Giving it the "works" is the plan... first question.... filled old Gatorade bottle 1/8 full of DAWN( at work) and used it in a 5 gal bucket with a bit of Adams for froth.... washed it twice now.... Still beads like a MF.......... WHAT is going on?????? What could be on the truck standing up this Well... I bought and took delivery in about 6 hours at dealer... so got a poor clean up to begin with and the "FIX" guy used P&S cherry wet wax when I took it back to correct water spots ( probably just filled the defects), and I used Meguairs NXT 2.0 about a month after I owned it.... May just continue on and start with dry ,clay , Swirl haze instead of fine.... sea,l glaze Americana kinda frustrating

look in the video selections and watch them perfom one I didn't see alot of HOSE shyness.... Just don't do it with the vehicle running.. Adams doesn't have an interior engine detailer product YET

There were some pics B4 the foum upgrade... but I don't see them now..

Thanks.... Just didn't want to mess something up...

Just wondering.... Truck was made 6 months ago.... sat on LOT for 3 months winter--- I have had for 3 months... Is ther such a thing as working on paint that is "too new".... Black with a metalic in it and have a few swirls and minor scratching I want to correct....

Is there a different product to clan and protect/lookbetter If You have the "Fuzzy" sort of molded fiber material wheel wells as opposed to the smooth hard plastic kind.

Atco..... thats my old stompin grounds.... just over Albion way

welcome... you will love it here

Looks to me like Base corvette wheels and seem to have a coating... I really quickly did one yesterday with a Dnyocone and all 3 Adams polish steps and it helped then sealed it... IF I really spend time on each wheel they should be fine... Thanks

Only works if it is a non shedding microfiber puppy....

So have I screwed the clear now? I had " another Vendors" medium cut, and finish polish and used the foam cone drill attachment..... I guess I will try the ADAMS clear coat polishes NEXT and see what that does...

Is there a thread I missed explaining the forum upgrade.... It is already pretty good the way it is...
