Rasky, you never cease to amaze me. You make every car you do look like it should be sitting in a showroom. Way to go! Keep up the fantastic work!

Re: Black 2000 Chevy Truck

That's interesting that you, too, got micro-marring with M205 and the Flex. I thought my experience might have been sui generis, caused by my incompetence. But if even you had some problems with it, then perhaps there's hope for me yet. Seriously, though, I wonder why the Flex/M205 combo is causing micromarring on some paint finishes. Any ideas?

I honestly have no idea. M80 seemed to finish a little better and Menzuran Nano and PO85RD finished off perfectly with the Flex. Normally I like to use the Flex on the final polishing step but figured I'd try M205 on the rotary just for kicks. It worked awesome and it's just SO much easier to use IMO than the Menzurna polishes. I also tried following up with Ultrafina and PO85RD after the M205 and saw no improvement.

I'm sure Kevin Brown or some of the other gods could give some insight as to why some paints act this way.

Great work as usual Rasky.
You made the truck look great. The interior looks fantastic.

Asking for more time and not charging extra, is a awesome thing to do. Rather have it done right the first time and have a customer for the long haul.

Great work.

Thanks! I just couldn't have my name on it and be happy with a 1-step given the condition of the paint. My OCD always gets me on jobs like this.

Excellent job..I am impressed

Thanks!

Another A1 quality job from Rasky! Thanks for always taking the time to share your work and your experience!!

There is nothing like black done right!!!!

Thank you Andy! I couldn't have done it without all the awesome Meguiar's products though!

Lot's of work on that truck Rasky, you made it look new again! Nice job!

Thanks Tom!

How did you wipe them down?
A towel dampened with Hyper Dressing?

Yep!

Nice work man!!

Thank You!

Looks great, like the 50/50 shots

Thanks!

I tried to use lots of different lights since I couldn't get any sun shots in.

Awesome job! Looks great and Im sure adding the extra step free made the owner very happy

Definitely...he insisted on giving me more money even though I kept telling him it wouldn't be right.

Wow! looks great How long did it take? im planning on doing my truck this weekend.

Quick question: what was your total time invested in the truck ?

16-18 hrs

Great job on that pickup Rasky!

That interior looked bad and those wheels!

It's quite an art to get black paint looking good! You did an awesome job.

Good show

Thanks Aaron!
