(First Vehicle)Oxidized Toyota Pickup

[tdrake2406]

First off this is my friends dad's pickup. He wasnt expecting too much as it was my first job. I pressure washed truck and degreased engine and tires. Followed up with a long buffing job with my porter cable 7424xp meguiars 105 and yellow cutting pad. Followed up with some rejex paint sealant some off brand tire dressing. It took quite a while getting everything squared away as expected and wish I could have spent a little bit more time fine detailing certain areas but here it is

This is what it looked like when it first came in

This is of the hood and on some parts of the truck you can see the primer coming through

Most of the rear done with a pic of the Meguiars

Here's where you can see the primer

Ah my mistake. But it's a great job and this only the beginning. Once others are you locally and see what kind of correction you can do, they'll come knocking. How long did the whole truck take you to do?

Roughly 8 hours and I learned a lot
