Workhorse Chevy 3/4 ton gets some overdue TLC

[white gecko]

Another long-time client of mine asked if there was anything I could do to bring the shine back to his truck since the paint started looking very dull. He was realistic about it and didn't care about the paint spots and heavy scratches....he just wanted some shine back. Since it wouldn't fit in his garage, I had to do it outside....and I forgot sunblock....had a BAD sunburn for like 2 1/2 weeks. OUCH! Won't make that mistake again.



Truck was foamed, washed, clayed, and Meguiars D301 was used with a Megs MF finishing pad on the PC for a 1 step correction and sealant. The beauty of D301 is that you can work it in direct sunlight and it does just fine! Work was done about 2 months ago and it still shines great and is still beading water quite nicely!

You can see how heavy the oxidation had become

Real nice turnaround Jeff. I gotta try out the d301 for a one step. For that heavy oxidation I usually goto KAIO on a white pad. Can't wait to try out what you did sometime.

I like it when people bring their hammered work vehicles. Good stuff!

Wow... that is very impressive for a one-step with D301. I had no idea it would be aggressive enough to pull that off by itself.

Wow! Gotta love a shiny truck!
