Used a Cyclo with LC orange cutting pads and a heavy swirl remover from local supply,
ran a second pass with Cyclo green polishing pads and CAnesse finessing compound from local supply,
flood washed with hose and MF sponge, dry and applied one coat of megs NXT Gen. 2.0

this job took about eight hours, too bad the bumpers are FUBAR rest of truck is ok with low miles.
 
Trucks came out great fun color to work on...One thing that would have been good to address for next time is the wells...get some good APC and scrub those up best you can then use a good water based dressing...Will bring the whole truck together
