    Dad`s Truck

    My dad`s truck is a 1991 Chevy Silverado w/130,000 miles. It gets washed when it rains and he has me "clean it up" once a year or so.

    The truck got:

    DACP W/cutting pad on "6"
    #82 SFP/polishing pad on "6"
    and NXT finishing pad x2 "4.5-5" (hurray..finally got some at Advanced Auto Parts)
    The tire and tannau cover were treated with Megs #40

    The first pic is a `half & half` on side just washed, the other got DACP

    By the way Don, Murphy`s Oil Soap works great to clean up those PC pads. Thanks for the recommendation!

    Glad it worked for you, I was thinking one day (a rare and scary thing) most of the stuff I use is oil based (one way or another) and I when saw the bottle in the laundry room, the OIL in Murphey`s Oil Soap jumped out at me. Well the gears started grinding and I tried it out

    Trucks are tough. Thier job exposes them to scratches and dings, yet you want to make them look like new. It`s tough battle, but it looks like you won this round. Great Work.
