    Paint condition question

    Had a friend drop of his solid black 2008 F150 this week to remove some light swirls. He decided to get it washed at the local car wash place first in effort to save some time and maybe even some cash. When he pulled up, I saw what is in the attached pic. Mind you, his truck is solid black with...

    Kids playing near my truck is worrying me

    Sorry I didn't bother reading the entire thread but I would recommend that you do something about the area that you *could* park under but choose not to because of the bird poo. For instance, I park under a large tree and my black truck was always getting bird crap on it. Shade is especially...

    Booooo Tracers...Boo

    Not that there was much that I was going to do with my limited experience in corrections anyways. The fact that I was so fired up about it drove them to do something about it. They are getting the entire hood repainted as I type this. Good for them. I think they would have just left it alone...

    Booooo Tracers...Boo

    This is my neighbors car who recently had some work done to the hood where a large truck backed into it a few weeks ago. I didn't even touch it, told him to return to the body shop tomorrow am. This is a shame.

    Iron-X

    Claying will get particles including iron caught above the clearcoar whereas Iron-x will dissolved material both above and below the clear where claying will not work. If particles are below, further paint damage will be seen if not removed. Decontamination is a big thing to do before claying.

    My story on why I am here and why I am excited

    On my way So, I have attempted to do my first correction on my truck. Gotta say I am amazed at the results but what a killer it was to get there. After approx 25 hours, 15+ on the compounding alone, I have only completed HALF of my truck. There are so many curves and contours to work with...

    My story on why I am here and why I am excited

    Before: I bought my black Ford Super Duty Harley-Davidson pickup earlier this year and inherited a ton of clear coat scratches. I purchased it on day that had 100% overcast so naturally the black paint look great. I did what I could to clean things up but like with typical fillers wax/glazes...
