BrianT Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Who the Hecht put the box on the hood and the dragged it across the paint taking it off? That truck was in tough shape, nice turnaround!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorsager Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Nice turn around! That paint was hammered! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceofWill Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Nice turn around for sure. From another 2500 crew cab guy I'd really recommend picking up some PCP. It's so much easier to work with than 105 and when you have to do that much, getting m105 hardened concrete specks off everything is something I definitely don't miss.

Natch02 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Nice truck. Looks like a good turnaround on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach5.9CTD Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 thanks guys Tom - reason i used megs is i have a solid 2/3 to 3/4 of a bottle and wanna get it more used up, thats a huge waste if i buy something i really dont need when i have 24oz of usable product haha Not sure what happened on drivers side of hood - truck was bought from me as you see it, came from TX - who knows what goes on down there with trucks. May pick up a drill backing plate and some 4" focus pads and work some of those deeper areas again, not sure. Overall im pretty happy with end results, hopefully i can get some full sun pics tomorrow as im curious myself how it REALLY looks in the sun!

Ricky Bobby Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 You were using the G110v2 DA correct? Nice work with the 105/205, correction is correction IMO. Get the orange/white twins when the old stuff runs out. Wow on the 4 passes and 30 hours spent, wild man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach5.9CTD Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 (edited) You were using the G110v2 DA correct? Just the G110v1 - Really wanna pick up a Flex 3401! Nice work with the 105/205, correction is correction IMO. Get the orange/white twins when the old stuff runs out. Thats the plan bud! Wow on the 4 passes and 30 hours spent, wild man! I wanna make sure my stuff is as close to 100% as i can get it, especially when my name is behind it for business!!
