Please tell the products,and where to get them. I want to wax mine, and dont know if buying an electric buffer would be a good idea.

Hey ShinesinTX

what products to you want to pick up? Most AZ or Mega retailers will have the Megs 3 step products.

If you want to step it up a notch or 10 let me know.

I was drolling over Branden's Black F150 at Kellers...what I could do to his paint....

Your KR would look nice all detailed out properly.

Check out www.poorboysworld.com http://www.autodetailingsolutions.com/index.htm

Let us know if you want some guidance.

Would like and appreciate the guidance...should I get a buffer for the waxing? I am not that lazy, but time savings would be nice with a rugrat and wife

I just want to have a balance between time savings and quality. I dont want to do it half a$$. But then again I dont want it to be SHOW quality because of limited time resources. Thanks. I would REALLY appreciate the tips since I now actually have a really nice truck.

For small clearcoat scratches, 3m makes a Rubbing Compound (Fine). You have to use lots of elbow grease, but you wont take off alot of the clearcoat. Follow the directions, and use a soft cloth.

For chips, goto the Ford House, give the VIN, or get the color off your door. Cant remember which. (they will know) Get the small paint applicator, dont get the pin. Use several light coats to fill the chip. You may have to wet sand the outer rings that it will leave. Take your time and apply several aplications. You are just trying to build up the hole where the chip has been vacated. It may not be as good as a new paint job, or the original paint, but it will look way better than the chip.

Remember, the slower you go, and the more **** you work, are in direct proportion to the end result.
