    Ever did this with 1Z Ultra?

    Exterior Entry #3: '99 Navigator

    This is my father's truck. For the 5 years he's owned it, he's only done the bare minimum (washed and the occasional wax). This truck has a lot of swirls from him taking it to various swirl-o-matics. In addition, this truck is starting to show signs of oxidation due to the fact it is stored...
