I was really hoping you liked the way it came out. It was a decent wash n wax.

Enough of the love......all I have to say is if I had the same truck with the same equipment as yours but I was making another 300 rwhp; my truck would be faster than yours.

Ponder that one apple herder!

Just messing around.

The truck will be easy to keep looking new. If it's kept indoors I would just polish it once a year, the rest of the time a hand wash and some more sealent will be enough.

As much of a pain in the *** it is I would polish the rims once a week if the truck is driven alot, if not, polish them after every trip out. The will be easy to do if you do them often but if not your going to be in for a world of pain. They are really nice rims. For some cash I could get your old rims looking pretty good but I dont know how important that is to you.

If you want to save money and just want a list of the products I use let me know and I'll hook you up, I can even give you samples of almost everything.

Joe_ I would love a list of the products you use and if you could help me save some cash on them that is even better. As for the wheels, I am going to polish them this weekend. What do you recommend as far as an applicator and polish???

The old rims are sold. well as soon as I pick the rears up from Don's.
