It's hot, I'm old, It's big & WHAT DID THEY DO??

Ronkh

Wax Waster
Well, got fed up with the world today, so decided the Tahoe needed something on it. Got the guts to coat it............

Well, the temp feel is 105 - UHHHHH hot and humid.



Well this shouldn't be too bad. It's new, they (dealer) only got their hands on it once or twice......

Wash.... rut roh, now I'm starting to see what's underneath whatever they put on......

Second wash to strip it all (whatever they put on it was almost gummy feeling), so I can really see.... Dunno what the dealer put on car but it really hid well. No doubt they used a brush and probably a hard terry towel.

Clay - Riccardo yellow - pb SW as lube

Ok, gonna polish so lets see how DP pre coating polish works on white pad on these scratches/rids/swirls - didn't touch it - next up pb ssr2 on white. NUTTIN. PB ssr2.5, nope. Bumped up to 2.5 on an orange pad. ok, that got most of em. so down to 1 on white pad to clear some of the cloudiness., too much work, so went to 2 on white, then 1 on black.... that seemed to get it done

This thing has "color tint clear" on it. (code name for "you gonna polish long time")

















Getting really tired/hot..... UHHHHHH

Ok, quick was to get the dust off

Dried.... Uhhh TIRED not enough energy to polish again then coat (read i'm tired and probably a little scared to do it now cuz I know i'm gonna get sloppy)

Truck was naked - can't leave it like this.

BFCS to the rescue 2 quick coats applied with a micro towel (my preferred method of application)





















 
Very nice...looks like a red mirror LOL... You need a AC in that garage...i can't wait for thus hot weather to be over...

that's funny ron, a friend of mine got a fully loaded, year old nissan pickup recently and the paint looked pretty decent, but one month later whatever glaze they used was gone and it was ugly. took a two step to clean things up too. your ride turned out very nice. thank God for wowa !
p.s. have your doctor increase your meds for your ocdetailing condition during the florida summer months. :D

All of your work is impressive, but this is the 2nd red paint detail you've done recently that's amazing!

Thanks. No editing though. All the pics are done with phone cam. What you see is what the cam got.
