[QUOTE="pierceography, post: 1296198, member: 26311"] That's kind of my plan, related to the paint correction. I picked up a variety of products based on feedback and forum research: - Porter Cable DA Polisher - Adams Car Shampoo - IronX - Chemical Guys Clay Bar & Spray - Meguiar's 105, 83, and 205 - Chemical Guys Hex Logic Pads - Chemical Guys and Rag Company Microfiber Towels I haven't picked a ceramic coating yet, but am heavily leaning towards the Adams offering. It looks like it takes a little longer to flash, and since I'm new to this the extra time will be advantageous. I'll likely start with the 205 polish, and hope the paint looks good after that. To your point, since it's a new truck, I'm going to cross my fingers on the clear coat being in good condition. I also plan to tell the dealer not to touch the truck once it's delivered; I'll wash it myself when I get it home. Everything I ordered should arrive by Wednesday, so I plan on practicing on my leased F150 this weekend. And yeah, I don't plan on picking up any products at my local autozone. TurtleWax worked fine on my used Taurus when I was 23... Not on a brand new performance vehicle. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
