This client wanted a ceramic coating applied to his truck. It sits outside 24/7 and was in desperate need of some protection from the elements/etc.
The paint was in very good shape. It had some minor swirling, some scuffs/marring and a few heavier scratches.
A gloss enhancement and minor paint correction would really make this beast pop, so a one step polish was on deck along with a ceramic coating.
Processes/Tools/Chemicals/etc:
2BW with Adam’s Shampoo and micro-chenille was mitt.
Clayed with Griot’s medium clay mitt.
Adam’s APC on the wheel well felts/lower body lines/areas of heavy road film/dirt as well as under the hood/engine areas.
Adam’s wheel cleaner on the wheels.
Adam’s tire and rubber cleaner on the tires.
DeFelsko PTG.
Scangrip lighting.
Flex XFE-15 with Rupes yellow pad.
Griot’s perfecting cream.
Misc. MF towels.
LSP was 22ple Mistico Elemento Forte. This was followed with a top coat of Finitura.
Trim was coated in this as well. (no top coat)
Blackfire tire/trim was used on the engine/under hood areas.
SCP tire dressing.
Blackfire glass cleaner.
Metro vacuum.
Blackfire interior cleaner.
McKee’s37 quick interior detailer.
Ultima Interior Guard Plus was used on the leather and high use plastic interior areas.
Thanks for reading/looking!
^^^The tonneau cover 'treatment' really laid down well after a few hours. It evened up nicely.
