Hmmmmm........... I think white looks really nice when it's shinned up really well, and is easier to take care of than some of the dark colors!

Boss_429 - I did tuck away in my memory bank your original comments on the effect of carnubas on light colored paints. ...No I didn't, my memory banks are shot - I saved it to a file!
But, when the Maquires wears off (at least I will know when it does), I may give your suggestion a shot - Thanks!

PhillipSVT- really, really nice lookin OXFORD WHITE truck! I figure that puddle in front of your truck is the from those Chebby owners behind you admiring your ride?!

I'd be happy to be your full-time detail guy.

I'm available for the nominal price of only $85,000/year plus unlimited use of all your Meguiar's resources.

Think about it, it's a helluva deal! LOL!

Uh, RP...

The $'s no prob... take a check?
But, remember I'm kinda new to this - my workshop detail shelf of Maguire's resouces consist of one bottle of M7, one bottle of M26, one nasty clay bar, and one one Quick Detail.

Still game?

Oh, gosh! I'vw got wipes! Gold class wipes!!
