        That metallic blue paints really looks like it's got some "pop" to it now - nice!

        That has to be the first F-250 I've ever seen with gull-wing doors. Don't know that it does much for me, but to each their own!

              Looks great John! That's a big truck and a lot of chrome too!

              I hope he parks in a garage at night though! Having "JL" decals all over it says steal me please!

                      Thanks everyone.

                      Believe it or not. J L audio sponsors him. He parks outside on his property everynight. This monster is over 29 feet long. It is mammoth.

                      He enters it in local car shows. So he wants me to detail it before every show.

                      Now I can't charge him full price. He and my daughter just became engaged on Saturday.

                      I can never win

                      Wife and I are happy for them.

                          Nice truck! Very well done. Question: You used the PRC151 only as you polish/wax? Correct? Have you done this before and if so how do you think the 151 holds up as far as longevity?

                          Thanks

                              Well, we have been doing a few test spots over the last couple of weeks. For some reason, his new paint (just had it repainted around mid January) responded best to !51 using a 8206 pad.

                              So when I did this I went staight to the 151 and went to work.

                              On this vehicle we will see how long it protects. May come up with something else in the future.

                              Thanks
