I'll do a search too to see what I can find too.

Thanks in advance.
Well, 99 times out of 100 when I want to go back down to the 'base', it will involve an abrasive polishing. A little bit of #83 or #80, or even #9 and 'POOOOOOOF', the wax is all gone.

I simply don't like using Dawn after reading and learning more about the potential effects (although, at one time, I used and had recommended it) and the fact that it's generally unnecessary to achieve a high-end outcome.

Yeah Boss has it right there. Wash that joker twice with a product like Meguiars Gold Class or NXT. Then I would highly recommend claying your truck to get rid of all those surface contaminents that are there. Best thing to do would probably just to go with the Meguiars Deep Crystal System. Use their Cleaner Wax followed by the Polish and a couple coats of a good wax and your truck will look like new again.
