Detail pics with Random Orbital

Ok, I did my truck again yesterday. This time I used a ROB and continued my used of mothers sealer and glaze step 2 and Meg's step 3 in thier deep crystal series. I topped it off with Ice QD and that added to it, however last night on break at my job at Target, I picked up some Meg's Ultimate QD. I am thrilled with the results and the ROB gave me smooth thin coats and the results show it. I still have to finish the roof and tonneau cover (some point this week). The sun was not blaring, so I know the pics are not how some professional detailers like, but I think the truck still looks nice. Let me know what you think.

Looks great !

That's a nice looking truck.... nice color... with the best cab to bed size ratio

Only thing is, the best photo won't show me what matters the most.....

When you get it out in the sun, do you see "any" micro-scratches or swirling whatsoever ??? If not, that's as good as it gets in my book. If so, it probably needs something else.... but not being a detailing pro, don't ask me what that would take....

Peace,
Fish

Thanks, it's engine turned vinyl (my dad has a sign/truck lettering shop). It dressed up the stockers for a while... less boring. Most people don't even know they are there.

You ever come up my way, surely

I did notice at the gas station (florescent lighting I believe) that there were some tiny scratches that only appeared under that lighting. How do I get rid of those, barely noticeable, but if I can using what I have or an OTC product, what should I do/use?
