Rasky's AD: Black 2000 Chevy truck

[RaskyR1]

Black 2000 Chevy truck, complete detail (no motor)



This truck belongs to a co-worker/friend of mine. Originally we were only going to do a 1-step correction. After doing a few test panels I was very unhappy with the results I was getting from my 1-step polishes. I called him up and asked for more time and offered to do a 2-step at no extra charge.



I had planned on using M205 as a 1-step via Flex 3401 but it was micro marring like crazy....yet it worked flawlessly on the rotary. :nixweiss

-Megs Gold Class

-Megs APC+

-P21S Wheel Gel

Awesome work as always man! Love seeing your posts.



Did you just clean the jambs with the APC? Also any reason you use two different interior "coatings"?

 

[snowskate]

that's quite a shocking turn around! Really really awesome!

Awesome turn around on the rims and paint!



Is that corn in the close up shot of the pedals?

I used APC, washed them with a mitt and some small brushes, then I went back over them with a quick detailer and a MF as one of my last steps of looking everything over.



I only used the QID on the radio, climate controls, and the speedo. M40 was used on all the vinyl, Hyper Dressing was used on the tires and trim.

Thank you!

$90 well spent....it's no Mytee but it can get the job done with the help of some other tools.

Thanks Jake!



Hyper Dressing at 3:1 ratio. I wiped them down after with a MF lightly dampened in HD in order to minimize sling.

That is some awesome work inside and out! Plus I must say your garage is very well kept, seems like a great place to detail!

Thank you! I only wish I had running water and a drain.

Nice turnaround,BTW did you notice any paint checking on the hood? GM black is notorious for CC failure on the horizontal surfaces.

I didn't see any signs of it....had lots of pitting and chips though.
