Liquid Black F250... Pt.2 / Ford Explorer / Toyo Camry

**35TH LE** · 01-22-2007, 01:00 AM

Some of you may remember my first thread on this Lifted Black F250.

The owner called me up last week and asked if I could do a followup after visiting the sand dunes... of course I scheduled. After I finished his truck he sent me to his GFs house to do her Camry... and Explorer. Since this guy is a good friend of a good frien, and since I have 2 more of his scheduled next week, I gave him a freebie on the GFs Explorer.

Very impressive! Nice job on that carpet too

Those reflection shots of the F250 are amazing!

All three look good but there is nothing quite like soaking wet black paint.

F250 is looking great!

Pics are a bit small, but they all look good

I really like ONR process shots, looks unreal.

Man, the more I see black the more I wish I had gotten my car in black. :tumblewee

Great work! They all look awesome. Do you detail out of your Camaro? I imagine showing up for an early morning detail in that car might wake the neighborhood.

Great work. That huge truck must take forever! And especially black, whoa. Looks awesome.

Damn it! I knew I could have found a good use for it! I was at Walmart yesterday and saw the Simple Green foaming cleaner... Wish I would have bought it. Some wheel wells have too many nooks and crannys and I really hate the idea of always having to rely on the masking power of a foam dressing.

Have you used it much? How do you like it? I assume it is not dillutable so how strong would you say it is?

Thanks guys! I appreciate the comments!

Way2SSlow... heck no, lol. I have a Ford Focus Wagon, one of my beaters, that I work out of.

joyriiiide.. man, I reallllllly like this stuff. I also used to use foam dressing for the wells and relied on it to mask dirt. The simple green foam works GREAT on the wells and tires.. no more hard scrubbing. I spray the wells and tires with this stuff.. let is set for a couple minutes and then lightly scrub with my "dirty" mitt. Although the two vehicles Ive used it on were FILTHY... on a normal wash Ill just foam with the simple green and then spray off with water. I hope Cotsco will carry this stuff in bulk.... Ill be buying it.
