****Warning, this is not an Autopia level detail so proceed at your own risk**** 
As I said in my intro post, my regular gig is a service tech for Frontier Communications. This week I transfered to a different work area and in that process was lucky enough to get out of a cargo van and into a 2 year old bucket truck. In those previous two years I don't think it was ever washed, and well.....we just can't have that (my wife thought I was half goofy lol).
A vast majority of my coworkers don't take much care of their work vehicles, but it's rare to get a truck like this, and even more rare to get one replaced with a new one, so I figure I'd better take some care of it.
Here's what I started out with. Two years worth of dirt, grease, and grime:
Time to go to work. Everything was sprayed down with Opti-Clean before being washed (2bm) with Chemical Guys Wash n Gloss. I ran out of day light last night, but was able to follow up with a quick coating of Pinnacle Black Label Paint coating today as well as UTTG on the black pieces. I'd say this beast is looking a little better today:
Well, that's it. It wasn't some impressive correction detail on a Lambo, but it's a vehicle that's a little out of the ordinary so I thought I'd share.
