Looks sweet. Yea, last year when I used clay on my runner for the first time I had a guy ask me if I just bought my truck too. Made it all worth while. I have had people ask me what year my turck was thinking it's like a 2000 and get shocked as hell when I tell them 1991..

I have to learn how to properly detail the paint. It still doesn't shine like I want it to.

thanks... though i didnt do it
yea, the spray on wax as you dry stuff is actually amazing. you use so little (couple of squirts per body panel) but it really does work.

so the order is car clay-polish-glaze-wax/cleaner wax? sounds like a lotta work. Clay-wax is what i usually do...I'll have to find out if that glaze stuff works myself

thats the order it went for me
could certainly be a lot less work, but when you pay $100 for a professional ext. detail, you expect to get the 3 or 4-package punch
