Re: The Incredible Hulk

The numbered/lettered products are from the detailer line and professional line. Some can be found locally and some have to be ordered at online detail stores or at your local detailing store if there is one. For example you can find D4510 Plastic & Vinyl Coating at pep boys.

Thanks again and yeah kind of had to rush it a bit because had a detail to remove scratches off a Dodge Ram which the Ultimate Compound worked amazing.
I normally take a good amount of before and after pictures but didn't think to do it on my truck since it was for my personal being. I do however take quite a bit on other vehicles I've detailed, some of my clients feel like they get a completely new vehicle after the detail which that alone makes me feel amazing.

Re: The Incredible Hulk

Will make sure to do so, I see a bunch of people refer to the products with numbers and letters is there a certain place where you all buy them, I look at both Walmart and OReilly Auto parts.

Like that model truck, Good job, but like michael stated it's the little details that makes you stand out from the next guy.

Also to add finish applying your dressing to your air dam, looks like you was in a hurry. LOL been there done that! And it wouldn't hurt to use some chassis black for your frame and upper control arms. Aagin something to set you apart to show you take proud in your work.

Have a great PAL that helps me alot, and on my picture taking (still learning) no matter how much of a hurry you are in that few seconds it takes to take that money shot will pay for itself. So just like the old saying "slow is fast & fast is slow" Fast causes you to wast time when you could be doing other thing or a step or two ahead, And if your trying to show what you can do with a bad, blurry/fuzzy picture you just lost a customer or two! And the Great Mike Phillips Statement! "If you don't take alot of good before pictures, showing all your talent/ correction ability! who's going to know that the vehicle wasn't already in good shape to begin with"

Re: The Incredible Hulk

Thanks for that service, it just goes to show how great of a group you all are.
Thanks for that compliment really take pride in my truck, just don't see it as a vehicle that gets me to point a to point b. Thank you as well for that heads up tip, will definitely do that as well when I get my trim restoration polish and polish for both my wheels and toolbox.
Great to know that there will always be someone to help better my detailing services.

Re: The Incredible Hulk

The truck looks great. Mike makes a good point about the wheels wells. Scrub them with a little All Purpose Cleaner (D101) and brush to give them a nice cleaning. Then follow up with one of the products mike recommended. You could even use D4510 plastic and vinyl coating or wait for the new ultimate black aerosol spray.

OK, we took the liberty of fixing the image links - you had the URL for the page that showed the image inside "image" tags, so the images would not show up. I went to the respective pages, clicked on the image to open it as just an image, copied that URL and pasted into your original message. Job done.


Now, as for the work on the truck - it went from being what looked like your typical work truck that basically serves as the biggest tool in your tool box, and now it looks like a work truck that's been babied for almost 20 years! Nicely done!

One quick tip, if we may..... spray some M40 or even Natural Shine into those wheel wells. Guys here on MOL will call you out on that so fast it will make your wheels spin. Doing so makes the job look more "finished" than leaving them dirty, especially on a vehicle where the wheel wells are so noticeable.

Can't view the pix for some reason..

Here is a detail of my personal vehicle I did this past weekend. Nothing too flashy but it gets me where I want to go, it's a forest green 1996 Chevy Silverado 1500 with a set of Eagle Alloy Wheels. Products I used was a rinseless wash, Meguiar's Cleaner Wax, Meguiar's Ultimate Compound, and Meguiar's Hot Tire Shine Foam. Due to no electrical outlet wasn't able to polish both wheels and toolbox, will have to save that for a later date when I also do the trim restoration using Meguiar's Ultimate Black. Here are all the pics hope you enjoy them and will be willing to take any considerations or advice.
