randyfox Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 It was a long time coming. I will be honest and admit I was procrastinating on this project due to the size of the vehicle and the limited amount of time I typically have. So, with the holidays here and my schedule favorable to tackle it, it was time to give our Radiant Red 2007 Tundra some quality time with Adam's products. Here are a few before pictures to show you what I was working with. Doesn't look too bad here so far, right? Upon closer inspection: Swirls o'plenty Nasty scratch on the rear passenger fender. I found the limits of the PC and Orange Pad with this one. May be time to step up to Focus pads or perhaps the Green Pad and SSR The truck got the full complement of Adam's products, so I will spare you the list, but I can post it upon request. Some after shots in the shade with reflections: And some in the sun showing off that Radiant Red finish and Adam's shine: All told, it took nearly a week due to the lousy weather we had in the South last week. Despite some of the deep scratches I couldn't get out completely, I am pretty happy with how it turned out. Thanks for looking! --Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you finish it off with americana? I sure did! Brilliant Glaze and Americana are my go-to products once the MSS cures! Much better! Thanks! That paint had a lot of shine under those swirls! That's a lot of square footage man! Nice turn around!! You're telling me! It was a beast, I'm not going to lie. I appreciate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Looks great! A clean, shiny red vehicle looks almost as good as a clean, shiny black one. Almost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randyfox Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 No I didn't. I think I want to re-clay the glass first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
