Good to hear that you've been keeping up on the truck since bringing it back from ugly dullness. Keep up the great work, and we're looking forward to pix of the project you're working on now.

Sorry for bringing back the old thread,.. but here almost a year later it still looks as great as it did when I buffed it I just keep it waxed! Workin on another car now with UC.. will post pics. Was reminded that I made this post almost a year ago and hadn't been back to the site for a while. The forums emailed me about my birthday today lol. Pics of the new one on the way!

Wax pretty much sealed the deal. It has stayed looking wet so far. When I get bored I wax it over again. I'm up in St. Joseph!

My wife and I go shopping in St. Joe, if we are not in K.C. we are in St. Joe, neat place to visit!

Excellent results. Most of my growing up years were spent in St. Joe. In Blue Springs for about the last 25 years.

Yes. You can see it sitting atop the heap of extension cord in one of the pictures lol. I'm pretty hooked on using this buffer to do stuff now. I ran out of stuff to use it on so I went out to the folks and used some ultimate compound on their giant faded propane tank when I was bored. Running out of stuff to polish.

...aaaannnnddddd he's hooked! Welcome to the world of obsessive compulsive detailing.

Your results are amazing...never though I would see that coming from an orbital. Which wax did you use to top it?

You got those results with an $18 orbital buffer? Wow. Looks phenomenal.

You just made your truck look like the Mercedes on the UC bottle. Turned out nice.

I did a old Chevy pickup blue in color that was very faded. I buffed it with a wool pad and UC. I followed with Color X by hand and then NXT 2 by hand. It came out like a mirror. This was almost 3 months ago and it still shines very nice.
