2008 Black Silverado Detail

I got to detail a new silvy, my stepdads. he washed it before i got there so i basically just did a wax job.

heres the process
clay bar
#6
#7
#26
Plast-X
Scratch-X

paint on the truck is still in great shape so its not much of an improvement, but an improvement none the less. i dont have before shots, sorry


the orange peel on the paint is very noticeable, and it bugs me lol

If i absolutely could not buy a ford and had to pick something else, that right there would be the truck, not crew cab though i dont like that on any truck.

Trucks looks good though.

the paint is in good shape, granted its an 08. but honestly my 2004 has much better orange peel that my stepdads. his is terrible, and i mean very very noticeable.
