    First off I wanna say a big "THANK YOU" to Scott and his family. There were nice enough to put me up for the night and allow me to do the detail at their house. All for a jar of wax! Scott's mom is the absolute bomb! First night we had fajitas, and then for lunch the next day we had turkey and ham sandwiches!!

    Scott I don't blame you for living at home brotha.....


    Exterior Process:

    Engine Bay:
    Pre-rinse with power washer
    Pre-soak with Super 43 APC, agitated with various brushes
    Rinsed off
    Air compressed excess water
    Conditioned with White Pearl


    Wheels, Tires and Whells
    Wheels pressure washed, pre-soaked with AG CWC and agitated with
    Uber sponge, SV wheel brush and inners with Daytona Wheel brush
    Once dried, Scott hand polished with a mix of Ez Creme/PB PwS via white 4" lc pad

    Tires rinsed, soaked in Super 43, agitated with a stiff brush then dressed with White Pearl

    Wells rinsed, soaked in Super 43, agitated with various brushes and when rinsed and dried, hand wiped with a MF to ensure cleanliness.


    Wash Process:
    Power washed off, pre-soaked with LA's Awesome APC, then foamed with a mixture of AG PM3, Showroom FX citrus wash and CG CWC.
    Agiated emblems and various plastic pieces with brushes and apc. Hand washed with Ulti-mitt
    Then rinsed off

    Clayed with Riccardo Yellow and Showroom FX QD, dried with Showroom FX WW towels and blew out crevices of excess water


    Paint:
    Proceeded to do a light glaze/clean with EZ Creme/PB PwS via PC and 5.5" black flat pads. Buffed off with Showroom FX fluffy towels.

    Protection was with Menz. Powerlock via PC and gold lc pads. I noticed this stuff doesn't spread evenly like BF AFPP, but I did up/down and left/right to ensure proper coverage.
    Let cure for a couple of hours and then waxed half the truck with RG 55 and Zymol Ital.

    I know some of ya'll are gonna freak cause the sealant didn't set for 12-24 hours. So :chillpill:

    When it was all said and done, the surface was amazingly slick! Almost too slick!!

    wow. that is one expensive camera . . . . . . pics came out super crisp though. Any tips? It's kind of weird that some pictures in my experience come out really crisp and some don't.

    Dude honestly, I don't know if we got the full effect of the Powerlock. We probably didn't let it cure like it's supposed to.


    But from what we did.... it was ULTRA smooth and slick!!
