Thanks! I think within the next year he is going to ditch the Escalade 18s and go for something more off road...I think it's a good choice.Leave a comment:

Black Silverado
This truck belongs to my Dad, and I decided to give it some MUCH needed attention as a Father's Day gift. As you will see from the before pictures, it had some swirls, marring, and nasty water spots. There were also random scratches, mostly from helping out around a friend of the family's farm.
Process:
Washed with NXT Car wash shampoo through a gun.
Dried with Meg's Water Magnet WW drying towel.
Clayed using Smooth Surface Clay Kit.
Meg's Ultimate Compound on yellow polishing pad via G110V2.
Meg's M26 Hi Tech Yellow Carnauba on black finishing pad via G110V2.
Meg's Ultimate Protectant on mirrors and bumper plastic.
Black Magic tire shine on wheel wells and tires.
Final wash: ONR.
As you can see, the paint looked dull...
And swirly!
After I washed it and dried it...you can see the water spots.
After UC, before wax:
All Finished:
My Dad keeps walking around the truck looking at it. So needless to say, he's thrilled with the results.
