Hiya,

I normally dont post too much here. So this time, I said what the heck. Let me post on the EM forum(Extreme Makeovers) and see what you guys think. Okay, here is a negelected 1989 BLACK Geo Tracker. I dont know if you guys seen/hear of this truck before. Anyway, this mini truck has 145K on the spodo and NEVER,never been detail or wax its life. But, he did take it to the tunnel washer 6-8 times a year(thank God for that):) So you can imagine what the body look like huh?

Process went like:
* wash
* clay
* wash
* Meg #83 w/wool pad@1500 x3
* Meg #80 w/yellowpad@1200rpm x2
* Clearkote VMoose w/yellow pad @1100 rpm. Yes, I know this isnt Meg product. :D
* LSP w/Meg#16
* Tire HD 1:1

Okay enough yapaing here's few pics.

I used the rotary on most of the panels. Only part I use DA was the lower door rocker panels. Yeah, I also cleaned all those pesky dog hair too:wall: It was getting dark, I didnt take any after shots on the interior.
