Diggerdan11 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 (edited) Hey everyone. I just figured I would post up some pics of my Silverado SS. I spent all day yesterday doing a full detail. This was the first time this year I had a chance to detail my truck. Here is the Process I used: A Couple days ago I did a 2 bucket car wash and cleaned my wheel wells, and used UC. I also used some SVRT on my Tires, and I used MP1 and MP2 with the new 4" metal polishing pads on my Chrome 20's. Yesterday I did WCW to remove the Dust, used SVRT and In and Out on the plastic trim, then Clay Bar, SSR, SHR, FMP, QS, BG, and Americana. I had a hell of a time with this detail. I dropped 4 chunks of Clay Bar on the ground luckily I just recently bought a new bar. Here are some After Pics. I also wanted to show off my newest Mods, Smoked Headlights/Corners and black front air ducts.

Diggerdan11 Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 Thanks everyone That's a lot of black paint! Great job. Yeah no kidding. I really hate black paint when im detailing it, but once its done it just looks so damn sexy. No way I will ever have another black truck though.

blcksilv08 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 What did you use to tint those tail lights they look great especially with the reverse left clear? Nobody ever wants another black truck until they see it cleaned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody ever wants another black truck until they see it cleaned up. I had them professionally painted at a body shop. Its a mixture of black paint and clear coat. Well worth the $50 I paid to have them done. I wanted to make sure that I could see to back up so I had them tape off the reverse lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say that's 50 dollars well spent, I am going to look into doing that on my truck and my dad's. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to attempt to do them myslef with nightshades and I bought some practice lights to test it out and I screwed it up bad, so Im glad I had the pros do it on my actual tail lights.
