So ive been reading this forum for months now and i've been wanting to detail my truck since i got it last year. I've been reading and seeing the amazing things adams polishes can do so I finally pulled the trigger and have placed 3 orders so far. Its very hard not to order the daily special daily. My birthday is coming up in the middle of november and I have 8 days off so i'm going to take the time to give my truck the attention it needs. My brother already has a Porter Cable so my g/f is going to get me the p/c accessory kit. I ordered the buttery wax daily special as well as the APC daily special last week. I also ordered the SVRT and APC Combo. Before I start this I'm going to pick up a gallon refill of the detail spray and the glass cleaner/sealer. I would love to have everything in the Adams collection but my bank account wont allow it. Since I have about a month to get everything ready, I wanted to let you guys know what my plan was and I wanted your guys input and suggestions. I am also going to be watching the adams videos again as this project gets closer.
Revised Plan
1. Spray the wheel wells and wheels down with APC.
2. Wash truck with dawn
3. Clay bar with detail spray, windows included
4. Alcohol Wipedown
5. Swirl and Haze remover
6. Fine machine polish
7. Machine superwax
8. Apply buttery wax 24hrs later
9. If the clay bar doesn't remove the water spots on my windows then ill try swirl and haze remover. Then clean and seal.
Of course I know this thread is worthless without pictures
I have a few questions about using the P/C on the front end. The chrome bumper is metal so I'm assuming i need the metal polish? Also the chrome strip that goes across the front is plastic so can I treat it like paint?
Also on the headlights and tailights, can I use fine mashine polish and superwax on them?
Let me know what you guys think and any suggestions you have. After I learn what I'm doing with my truck I want to clean up my g/f's 2011 Nitro.
She won't let me learn on it. I can't understand why.
