2012 Ford F-150. Owner was referred to me by his brother, whose cars I`ve been taking care of for about 15 years now. I detailed his Harley last month, he said the truck would be next. True to his word, he called to set up the truck for a detail. He is a contractor and this is his work truck. Other than the outside being dirty from the thunderstorms followed (yes, followed) by a dust storm this past Wednesday, it was the cleanest work truck inside and out I believe I have ever detailed. Paint was in really good shape too, other than some wear on the front plastic floor mats, it was in excellent condition.



ONR wash, Optimum nano-skin to clay

Optimum G-P-S using an Optimum microfiber polishing pad and my PC 7424 XP

G-P-S buffed off with Optimum Car Wax (really quick way to add more protection and depth)

Armor All on the tires/fenderwells

3D Trim Protectant on exterior trim



Woolite/water at 20:1 dilution to clean the leather and vinyl

3D Carpet Shampoo at 16:1 dilution to clean the carpets

Optimum Protectant Plus on the vinyl and weather stripping

Duragloss Leather Conditioner #221 on the leather

I get tired just thinking about detailing that beast. Perfect as usual.

Thanks! Truck was in such good overall shape, plus with what a time saver ONR is along with the G-P-S/OCW route, only took me 4.5 hours.

720ffsuit... I have a similar F-150, mine is an 2009 XLT white and silver. They aren`t that hard to detail, lots of flat surfaces, the worst part is the roof!



Scott... excellent work as usual. Love the color!

At my age I`ll stick with my little beast. I detail my wife`s ginormous Lexus SUV 2x per year and dread having to do it in between, lol.
