Hi all, just wanted to share my experience today with Meguiars.

I took my black 2004 screw hunting over the weekend and hit some nasty trails. Got lots of scratches, but it is a truck and I wouldn't own a truck if I wasn't going to use it for it's intended purpose :-)

My arms feel like they are going to fall off, but I'm very happy with the results. I used ScratchX first on all the bad spots, then the 3 step Deep Crystal stuff. There are still some there, but it's amazing how much this stuff made them fade, and it removed 90% of the swirl marks and other scratches that had been on the truck over the last 2 years.

First a few picts of the scratches.




Now the After shots.

 

all i can say is WOW! I knew scratch-x worked but i think that may be the most dramatic effect i've seen. You definitely get way up. I hope you had a few beers in the cooler for that job.

 

Wow huge difference. Nice job.

 

Nice job Jake! Truck looks much better!

Mike

 

Nice work. Thanks for documenting your work with the pics!

 

Looks good. I hope you got a new bonnet for the polisher after laying it on the floor pad site down.

 

Yeah, I forgot to pick up a new one before starting the job, I took it out and realized it and just did the whole thing by hand. My arms are killing me.

 

NICE WORK

looks great

Also, how are you like your chrome bar grille?

 

I love it, here's a link to a thread where I have some good pictures of it: https://www.f150online.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=246442

 

is the quality of it good? i have been debating on whether to get this grille or not also.

Looks great btw

 

It's well worth the price. You could spend 2 or 3 times that and get something that weighs more and might last longer. I have my oem grill in the garage just in case, but don't think I'll need it. I've had it for 2 1/2 months so far and it still looks like the day I got it. I haven't seen one like it where I live. I see a ton of the billet, flames and skulls ones, I like to have something different than the rest.

 

last question....do you know who actually makes the grill, because i have seen other sellers with similar ones...and the place you got yours from is out of stock

 

No I don't, there are no markings on it, or in the molding under it, I looked when I installed it. The box it came in was just a plain brown box with nothing other than the mailing label on it. The seller I got mine from does have it up for sale right now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-...QQcmdZViewItem

 

Sweet!!!! thanks a lot

 

Truck looks good .. nice job.
