Default Detailed the Rig today!

Been meanin to detail my truck, so I decided to do it today. Took me about 5 hrs.. Hasnt been done in about 6-8 months. It wasnt horrible but the detail definitley cleaned her up..

Washed with Adams car shampoo and Clay bar'd the hood. Then started with the new Adams Severe swirl and haze remover followed by, swirl and haze remover, machine polish, and machine super wax. Used some VRT and IN & out spray for under the hood, Tires and trim. Stuff works great.


Idle Vid, Cutout closed then open..


Half of the hood done..


All of the hood done.


Reflection shot on the bed..
