  • Got more gloss!

    I started a thread here a few days back and the discussion was how to get more gloss with the Ultimate line. (Here is that thread if you are interested: http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums...get-more-gloss )

    I have a new 2016 Ram 2500 Cummins Diesel truck that I am waxing for the first time. The truck was built in late August and I bought it in October so it is only three months out of the factory. After a little consulting with my son, posting here, and some trials, I got the job done.

    I clayed the truck, polished with Ultimate Liquid Polish using a dual action polisher, and then waxed it with Ultimate Liquid Wax. Even though this is a brand new truck with no damage to the paint, I discovered that the polishing step with a DA polisher was definitely of benefit to creating more gloss. Thanks to Nicholas Winn for his recommendation to do that. On a vehicle this size that means a lot of work but it was worth it. Here is the proof:

    Pretty awesome stuff right here Alphonse! Thanks for taking the time to share your results and thank myself and MOL for our recommendations. My daily driver is a 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500 Duramax, which is white also, so I am well familiar with the amount of surface area on 3/4 ton trucks.
