75 degrees in November when it should be 40....did some much needed truck care

[goblues38]

washed, polished, and waxed the raptor and my wifes explorer sport today


My wifes explorer sport needed some work. 3 part job. deep cut polish, micro polish, then a carnuba wax. black looks awesome when it is right, but it is hard to get it there.

Did you armour all the inside of the tires too?

Burn, but you gotta admit the guy did a great job. Truck looks better than new.

I only said that because another member recently was asking about doing the same thing, just my lack of being funny, lol.

thanks.....I did spray it pretty heavy.....33k miles on the truck and the tires looked like crap from a recent off road event. Now they look as you said...brand new.

Lately, the truck sits in the garage and I am driving it very sparingly. So I got her all cleaned up to be put away.

That is possibly even funnier regarding how wrongly I read that. I never knew that was even a thing and I thought I could detail pretty well.

Roger that. Respect for getting that beautiful rig off road. Mine has 800 miles on it and I’m still unwilling to go off road in it. I really have to sell my older truck. That being said the compulsion will eventually strike and I’ll get it stuck somewhere silly.

I got it because I had seen the title to the other thread, made me chuckle. I guess I have a weird sense of humor.

Back on topic, both vehicles look great, your hard work shines through on your wifes black car.

Truck looks great. I have the same color. Me and a buddy spent 8 hours on Saturday doing a ceramic coat. You should look into that especially on your wife’s black car.

Same with mine. I use my wife’s Mercedes as my beater.

Nothing like staring at a spotless car/truck after working to make it look that good all day. Very satisfying feeling.
