  • First time with UC..#7 and #16

    Finally got all the stuff I needed over the course of the last two days. Started off this morning washing the big ole truck to get it ready. I pulled it in the garage but its so long it won't fit. The Megacab is like 22 or 23 feet long.

    I started out with Ultimate Compound on the g110 with a yelow pad. Didn't do the last half of the truck and the tailgate since the sun was hitting it. Backed it in after I did everything else and will finish it this afternoon. I also have some m205 , so I might try it this afternoon instead of UC.

    AFter I did the UC I used the #7 with a black pad on about 3 to 4. Applied it by sectionis then wiped clean. Wasn't too bad taking it off, just did it thin. I then finished with a thin coat of the M16 I got off of ebay.

    Here are a few pics, tried to get the best ones I could. I'm sure there were more micro-swirls but couldn't pick them up very well. There is a pretty good scratch on the tailgate that I want to take care of this afternoon and will do some before and after pics.

    The paint has a real pretty silver metallic flake in it. Couldn't quite capture it but looks really good in the sun. I still have to finish the tires, wheels, and interior.

      Generally, only PBE stores would carry those products. Have to use the Dealer Locator to find them. But call before you go.

          I got the M205 as a sample that came with the g110 package deal from ADS. I pretty much order off the internet. I did an order from ADS and also from http://www.detailing.com/store/

          Both are very close in price and since I'm in Cali if I order early enough it usuallu here the next day or day after.

          And thanks for the input on the reflection shots and the work........

            Truck looks great. The flake is really popping.
