I also need to find a product to protect my exterior trim. Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

Sweet! This has been of the utmost help. Thank you very much sir. It doesn't need much to have a show truck shine. I think this will probably do it. And I'll follow up with a wax or sealant of some kind. Then invest in some rinseless wash Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

It sounds as if your goals, your past vehicles, as well as your intentions with this truck are in line with mine. My '99 powerstroke had 350,000 miles when I sold it to put a down payment on this. Everything I've owned was over 200,000 miles. The powerstroke still looked good, though. However...

How silly would it be to do it a bit at a time? Wash polish and was maybe the bed one day. Next free day the cab, next the hood and front fenders. Etc. Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

It's awesome middle ground. Tows very well with some surprising capacity for a half ton. I get 22-24 mpg depending on how I drive and conditions. I haven't really been in any straight city traffic. That would surely be less. It rides well too. Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

Also, not afraid to wait a bit. However, I do want to pick up a good mitt or sponge to wash with for now. For now I might just do that with Meguiars gold wash and forgo the drying until I spend some on dry cloths. Ill deal with water spots, but avoid marring and further swirling. I am...

Lol. It is. 2.7 ecoboost. It's a BEAST of a little motor. I look forward to hearing your experience with that product. What pads did you buy? Or, better yet, do you have a thread? Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

The biggest hesitation to not wanting to polish myself was having to buy a polisher I'd rarely use. Now that I know of one I can borrow, that is changing. Money isn't necessarily all that tight, but I don't wanna waste money buying a ton of towels or products that don't get used either. It adds...

Oh it'll definitely get SOME sort of wax or sealant, just not sure what yet. Until I came here I was going to use meguiars tech wax or rejex. I've already washed and clayed it once, then used meguiars polish, then mother's cleaner wax. I should have used a finishing wax, because I am already no...

I have a friend who owns a DA polisher that I can either use, or have him use on the truck. Since the paint is new and just has some light swirls and such that I want do away with, I'm thinking a very gentle polish will do it. I don't think much aggression will be necessary? I bought the...

That's what I was hoping. Once the paint is corrected and waxed well, that it'll dry much easier. At that point I may foam, rinseless wash, then blow dry. Once in a while really roll my sleeves up when it's time to treat my girls to a night out. Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

Do we get any AG discounts? Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

Awesome! Thanks, I'll check it out tonight, and probably order some stuff. Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

I'll have to taste the coolaid. It takes forever to wash my truck the way I've been doing it. Any specific brand? This is a truck, and will be used as such. It isn't a show car, so I don't necessarily have to have the best money can buy. But I want good stuff with a good bang for buck value...

Ahhh. One of my next questions is why rinseless washes seem to be all the rage here. I live at a pretty secluded spot surrounded by trees. No neighbors can see me using a blower on my truck 😊. I'm not sure if I will try to tackle polishing the light scratching out myself, or if I'll try to...

I really have to work on drying. If I wash it all and then dry, drying has already begun and watersports have set in. When I do a bit at a time, washing the next panel gets over spray on the dry panel(s) and I'm back at square one. I'm going to place an order for, at least, some drying towels...

I am currently educating myself on which products to buy to best care for my truck, chemical wise, but in the meantime I want to make sure I have the proper mitts, towels, etc since they actually contact the surface. Are all microfiber products created equal? I am currently using an absorber...

Is this maybe available somewhere as a digital download? Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

When it comes to a no rinse, does it actually offer any sort of protection, or does it just make it shine a bit between real washes? I work at a lumber yard, where sawdust and dust from gravel roads abound. After a day or so of that, I'm not sure a no rinse would be a good idea. I'm afraid it...

I always use two buckets, and spend quite a bit of extra time rinsing out my mit after washing a panel before I rinse it in the bucket and dunk it back in the wash bucket. I don't have a problem ordering supplies, mits, towels, etc. Anyway, it seems to me that it can certainly be possible to...
