The paint finish buffed out to a near mirror-like shine. Full gloss is back and all cobwebs and minor scratches are gone.
Is there any more pics of this truck anywhere?


Whats up with that?

That sucks. It has got to be a different truck because the first one has a code key under the handle and the other one does not.

This was answered before, but I don't think "Search" would find the thread. The pictures are from Autopian Deemo, and they are two chosen from a series of pictures. Just like my Audi pictures, where one is of the hood in the morning, the other is of the rear quarter in late afternoon. Be assured, Deemo got the results in the pictures. There's no reason to fake them, all you have to do is polish the paint as outlined in the article.

With some work and a PC, yes, those results can be had.

I can assure you that Deemo got the results in the pictures. I have many more extreme before and after using the PC and proper pads/polish.

The more I look at can tell its the same truck, just not the same area. Thats all.

Thanks Guys,
Tyler

I haven't been on the board at all lately but luckily a friend saw this post and pointed it out to me.

The truck is mine and the shots are of the same truck but different door.
The first shot has the entry keypad and is shot under flash as there was ZERO reflectivity.

The second shot is the passenger door after hours of hard work using all the knowledge I garnered from months on this site from all of the experienced and helpful people.

The finish on both doors prior to the work was exactly the same poor condition from poor washing habits.

The finish on both doors after the work was excellent.

David kindly asked to use my pics after seeing my post. To profess the pics are intentionally misleading or false is ridiculous.

Here is the initial post of the truck (thanks to Autopia as I can't find my orginals):
http://autopia.org/forum/showthread.php?t=37732

The third shot from that post shows both doors.

And the post from working on the tailgate first:
