After the Jet Ski practice I decided to work on my 16 year old daughters car I bought her. Its a 2008 and this color of red really shows marring and swirls. I used the advice from Evan and others and had much better success with this job. Although I only polished and waxed hers...no Black Label...

Very nice truck you have there, you have great taste! Thank you for your personal advice on your Ruby Red. These colors are amazing in real life. I have always been a solid black or red kinda of car guy. When I went to buy the black FX4 the Ruby on the lot just jumped out at me for being...

Picture Test (Thanks to Mike) My two Babies

Evan did take a lot of time and effort to respond as did many others, very appreciated and helpful. I realized I asked like a million questions in a single post which highlights my noobiness. Thank you for explaining how to insert pictures for a larger view vs simply attaching them. I couldn't...

Bryan, the results look great. Quick question. Why did you choose to use Detailers cleaning polish verses the Black Label cleaning polish advertised to be used with the BL surface coating? Also when I did mine I applied the BL cleaning lotion by hand with a MF pad. Should I have used my PC and...

Any updates? Sure, its 16 degrees in Dallas right now so the truck is staying as is for the moment. ha I did purchase 6 5.5 orange and 6 5.5 white pads from AG so I'm getting my supplies ready for round 2. I think I will plan on late Feb early March to carry me through the summer and plus it...

Mike, I will do as you suggested to try and narrow down the culprit. overspray is plausible but I was pretty careful when applying and I don't think the whole truck would be this uniform with speckles. I'm wondering if humidity and or dirt attached to the coating while curing. Like I mentioned...

Thanks Mike! This truck is 5K miles only and under carport 95% of the time. I work from home so it doesn't see sun much as an FYI. Yesterday when I used the DA and Wolfgang 3.0 swirl remove followed by glaze it was spotless on my test area. Whatever those specs are were removed and the 12x12...

Has anyone who has used the Black Label Surface Coating noticed it leaves very small "dots" in the clear coat? I washed, clayed, polished and then cleaned using PBL cleaning polish. I then applied a very thin coat of the surface coating and buffed any high spots. Its very slick and beads nicely...

Great review indeed on the product. My question is I have a 2013 F150 FX4 with luxury package. Meaning leather heated and cooled seats with alcantara inserts in the center. Anyone know if these are coated or natural (naked) leather? The truck only has 6K miles on it but want to keep the leather...

Thank you guys on the pad explanation, makes perfect sense. I have sense ordered a 6 pack of orange pads and a few gray and white. The next attempt to remove the last bit of swirls should be much better with fresh pad for each panel. Also I took your advice and picked up some blackice QD for...

Thanks for the reply. The swirls were the same ones that were there before I started although less of them and more faint. I don't think (newby guess) I introduced more scratches that were not already there before I started. However I did use only one orange pad for the entire truck. It was a...

Hope that helps you Danny Evan, Yes, this was very helpful. Just what I was looking for. THANK you very much for taking so much time to respond to the multiple questions and comments. Sounds like I just need to plan the time to go through the 10 hours of processes I just finished to get the...

So after reading through many post and how to’s on this forum I tackled my first real detail on my truck with moderate success. I have a 2013 F150 in Ruby Red which is my daily driver although I actually don’t drive all that much. The truck is 1 year old and has 6K miles. It is parked outside...
