Finally... after 5 hours Project Farm Truck is complete. For those of you who didint read my last post, This is my friends truck, a 1989 Ford F150 4x4 Lariat Extended Cab. It was a nice truck in its day. I had to bring it back from the dead so I got my lazy self out of bed at 8:30 to get to work. I started around 9 and finished at 1:30. Thats 4 1/2 hours non stop w/ a PC.



Heres the process:



Doule Dawn wash in lukewarm water

Clay

Dawn Wash

Dry w/ MF

Meg. #9 (I skipped this step b/c no clear coat and no swirls)

Meg. #7 w/ PC (2)

Meg. GC Liquid w/ PC (2)



Meg. High Endurance on tires

Liquid Lustre for chrome, plastic and windows

Black Magic in wheel wells

Great job. Taking a neglected vehicle and bringing it back gives me a tremendous amount of satisfaction.:up
