Hello from IA!

[loweredd]

Hello everyone. My name is Dan, and I am a new member from IA. I came on the site looking for some good recommendations for products to use on single stage paint. I got some UC the other day and some SwirlX. I am working on my 98 Freightliner. It has single stage Imron. It's fairly shiny paint, but very swirled, and the top of the hood gets oxidized pretty quickly. Truck washes usually use harsh soaps to get trucks clean, so I am still deciding what to use for a final wax. I bought some Gold Class paste, I will see how that works. It looks good from a distance, but it's an old truck up close. There are stains from where it was lettered with vinyl before, I'm still trying to figure out how to get rid of that.....

Here are some good pictures of the truck.
