Rupes makes arguably the best buffers on the market. I happen to own both the Flex 3401 and the Rupes 21. I prefer the Rupes 21 almost every single time. I have been professionally detailing for over 13 years. I say get the Rupes 21 Bigfoot and don't look back! It is a very easy buffer to learn...

Can you use these on a stock Raptor or should it have a tune?

Check out Gtechniq’s Crystal Serum Ultra. I used to detail for a living and used a lot of their products because they were some of the best I could find. And just like others have said, the most important thing is finding a good Detail shop that has experience applying ceramic coatings. And...

Looks good! Usually you can get more of that contamination out with a clay bar or clay cloth but it can sometimes take awhile. Gtechniq makes a product called Iron and Fallout remover that works great and can save a lot of time removing contamination as well...

Super easy fix! I got some red marine vinyl from Joanns fabrics and a curved needle. I cut off the old red strip and figured out how it was sewed on and copied that. Looks brand new.

I am using the Rupes Coarse polish. It works great. The denim pads remove the clear at a very slow and consistent rate. You could probably do it without the gauge. Every time I measure the clear is only a micron or two thinner than before. I wasn't willing to risk that though and I detail for a...

I used the CarPro denim pads with a Flex 3401 buffer. I will be using the Flex PE-14 rotary buffer when my 5" plate arrives because it will cut faster then a da. I have a paint thickness gauge to make sure I am not taking too much off. Really what I am doing is slicing off the high points...

I couldn't stand the amount of orange peel in the factory paint. Here are a few before and after pictures. I removed most of the orange peel by just knocking off the high spots of clear.

I own a detail shop and I use the Optimum No Rinse product every day at work. I can tell you that it is an excellent product if used correctly. Any wash method will produce swirls if done incorrectly. If the truck has mud or a heavy buildup of dirt/grime you need to pressure wash it first. I...

Rupes. But I only say that because I use their polishes and the Bigfoot 21.

Changed out all the fake beadlock bolts for shiny new stainless ones.

Welcome to the forum!

Here's a few pictures I just took. The truck needs a solid detail and a few things and it will be good to go. Doing an oil change today and getting the winshield replaced.

Santa Rosa, California. Just updated my location.

Will do. Let me see if the shops I know are even interested in doing extra work. If so I will go through the proper channels to get set up as a vendor. Just trying to help!

Thanks guys. I'll post some pictures "as is" before I detail it all out.

I just joined the forum because I recently bought a Raptor. I run a small auto detail shop and know a lot of guys in the car industry. I'm thinking of going and talking to the guys I know that do custom upholstery and laser engraving and seeing if they want to make the headrests, center console...

Hey guys I just bought a 2011 Supercrew Raptor and have been lurking on the forums for a few weeks. Figured it was time to join the forum and say hi. -Andrew
