McKee's 37 360 Now Available In a GALLON

...and 50% less than buying (8) 16 oz. bottles. Awesome product and price!
 
How much of this product does it usually take to do a vehicle? A 4 door f150 for me. I think I have chosen this product to correct the slight swirls on my truck. Really no idea how much to buy though.

for a truck you could prob use a 16 oz about 6-8 polishes maybe more; this is based upon my noob experience.

It doesn't take much! If I had to guess I would say 3-4 ounces for a truck your size. Tops.
 
Ahh. So a smaller bottle is in order. Haha. Thanks!

I have a pinnacle rinse less wash kit on the way. And will get the McKees once I've gotten a polisher. Black -_-. But it looks soooooo good clean!

You are going to love everything about McKee's 360. The 16 oz. bottle will likely allow you to do ypur truck 3-4 times, which could last you 2 years if you do it twice a year. It's among my favorite products of all.
Enjoy!

Thanks to all. I read a review of someone who was also new to this who used it and had great results. So I really think it will be perfect for me. I'll follow it with some sort of wax or sealant. No idea what yet really. Whatever I coat it with in my final step, I wanna do by hand. The way I've always done it. My truck looks great from 90% of the angles. But when you catch it right in bright sunlight, it looks swirled. I can't swallow that on my very first brand new vehicle.

I was going to have it professionally done, as the price would be similar to buying everything to do it. But when I called the recommended local place, they gave me a price on a wash and wax. (Which was a good price). When I again asked about POLISHING he said, you mean your wheels? No, and I explained the light scratches, and I could tell he made up a price for me, and had no idea about doing what is necessary here. After that, not sure I trust anybody but me.

Where are you located? I'm sure there is someone close by or local to you that would be happy to either A) Help you do it by machine or B) be accommodating and complete the truck for you at a reasonable cost. AG members always seem to know someone in your local area!
 
I live in Lancaster, SC. And, honestly, if I found someone who would know how to do the job properly, and treat it with the respect that black demands, I'd rather pay someone. At least the first time.

All I can really find are local mobile detailers, who all seem to just be carwash stations on wheels. Some of them may be the cat's meow, but it's the equivalent of me going around detailing with a trailer and my truck. I used to 'detail' vehicles when I was in high school. Which was nothing more than washing with dirty water and a rag, shining the tires, vacuuming and armor alling. I didn't know any better. But I did a decent job.

Anyway, without hearing first hand experience on someone like this on a real polish job, I would be dubious. Lancaster, SC 29720. Fairly close to Rockhill SC and Monroe NC.


I tend to like doing stuff myself anyway, but right now I just don't have time. My wife and I have our first newborn daughter, and I have a fixer upper house that I need to finish getting ready to put on the market. I work at a lumber company and now is our bus season. I'm sure most of you know the ol' song and dance.

Alright bud, I'm going to knock down your "excuses" for delay:

As of today, I have a 1 year old.
Just sold our old home, and moved into our new one.
I work 50+ hours a week.

The wife's car took about 5 hours to wash, clay, decon with iron-x, and polish with 360 and my PC. The truck will have more surface area, but it's mostly flat, and easy to access (except the roof and the top back of the hood. It wasn't hard. After nearly a week of daily rain, with construction dust and pollen thrown in for good fun, it's still beading like mad. Honestly, when the polisher was running it was a nice departure from all the stresses in my life, kind of like mowing the lawn.

You can do this.
 
Oh I can. That just means I'll have to devote yet another Saturday to not making progress on the house. Then I might have to send it back to Ford :(. Lol

I still have hardwood floors to re finish, two bathroom remodels to tackle, paint in almost every room and drywall cracks, laminate flooring in one room, and tile in the kitchen. I'm doing the roof this weekend. The time line is about a year on that though, Lord willing. I've thought about tackling it on afternoons, a panel or two at a time, but we have just begun spring practice at the high school (volunteer coach). I don't think we will practice on Fridays though.

I also thought about getting up super early and doing it by lights before work. I'm afraid that would turn out badly though.

Can the new Mckees 360 be used on plastic trim or will it leave residue?
Thanks,
Chip
 
It hasn't left a residue on the applications that I've used it, but with anything test a spot.
 
It didn't leave anything on the trim on my wife's Nissan Rogue, so I got lazy with the tape on my truck. It has some white marks on the plastic trim around the door handles that I need to clean up.
