:cheers:Nice work. In for more after shots!

tape off a 2x2 area and try with the white pad first. if this does not give you the desired results step up to the orange. Remember slow arm speed and pressure on the first few passes then light the pressure on the last two. Give the product time to work and do its job. If the Orange pad...

what suggestions are you looking for? Alternative pads? Compounds? Polishes? Waxes, sealant,......

Fantastic job. The truck looks great!

I have had good luck on older coated leather. Todd helme has a good post about Leatherique. Does Leatherique work on coated/pigmented leather

How to Videos - Auto Geek Online Auto Detailing Forum Search through here. Watch them all lol.

1.Vacuum and use a soft brush 2. I like to apply liberally by hand in pull the car out in the sun for 24hour if possible 3. One of the coating companies I have talk to did not recommend using a coating after leatherique or any type of leather conditioner.

everybody is going to have there favorite. I use Mostly Meguiars M105 and Menzerna FG400 as far as compounds. I also like Pinnacle Advanced Swirl Remover and CarPro Fixer.

5.5 on the Porter Cable. Honestly from the looks of the pictures this would be a good kit to use. I love microfiber pads on my Porter Cable. Meguiars DA Microfiber Correction System 5 Inch Starter Kit, paint correction kit, dual action polishing kit...

From the looks of it you're going to need more then a light polish. What products do you have as far as compounds and pads?

:postpics: Without pics we have no idea of the severity of the defects. Sr1 would be a good starting point( least aggressive method first) and a white pad. How's is your technique with the DA? How many passes, pressure, and technique play a huge factor on the outcome.

It will be fine. Hand wash it then spin it dry on your DA. should go back to normal.

Like jeff said you could be removing a little haze which is causing existing swirls to show. I'm not familiar with this polish but from what I understand its more of a light cleaning polish before you apply LSP.

Yep! Nice even coat gets in all the crevices in one shot and is faster then applying the traditional way.

Me too. I don't detail to many trucks most don't like the price I quote.

lol

lots of area lol. My brother in law has never really detailed a vehicle and has never touched a polisher. He was tired after the claying step. I was like man we haven't even got to the LSP yet.

My brother in law wanted me to detail his truck so I agreed to do it if he helped and a case of frosty cold ones lol. This truck was hammered and has never been detailed. Unfortunately I was not able to snap a bunch of pics because I was coaching him on how to detail(using a steamer, foam gun...

I'm afraid you will have to polish again. I would start with m205 and a black finishing pad if you have one. Do a test spot and make sure you are happy with the results before doing the complete car.

Awesome car. I hope you get the job that would be a fun one to detail.
