Well, I got it done finally. After the setback yesterday with the cracked paint, I finished it up today and he was VERY happy with the end result!


PAINT
Wash -- Meguiar's Gold Class
Clay -- Mothers
Wash -- Gold Class
Polish -- SIP / Orange CCS with UDM then Micro Polish / White CCS with UDM
Wash -- Dawn to remove oils
Blow dry with Shop Vac blower
Wax -- Pinnacle Souveran

WHEELS & TIRES
Rims -- Megs Wheel Brightener 4:1 then Gold Class -- Meguiar's #21 2.0 sealant ( LOVE this on rims :D )
Tires -- Gold Class -- Dressed with Meguiar's Endurance tire gel



Here is what I started with. Swirls and bad scratches everywhere, along with buffer trails all over the place (all pics after wash)

Turned out very nice, just too bad most of the truck was covered in these tiny paint cracks that I didn't even notice until after polishing...

Looks great. Did the Pinnacle help cover some of the miro chips? Next time use some Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing Lotion before waxing. PPCL has some fillers in it.

Is that cutey yours?
Truck came out good, that interior must have gave you as much trouble at that paint did.
 
YUP! That is my oldest son, Peyton, 18 months old. He LOVES being outside with my hanging around cars and trucks. Best part is that he knows not to touch them!

The interior actually wasn't bad, just a good vacuum and a wipedown with some DP 4 in 1 solution :)

Actually, the Souveran did help quite a bit. They are still noticeable, but not as bad. I just might have to pick up some of the PPCL, I have heard nothing but great things about it, thanks for the tip.
