Ever detail one of these?

Truck is clean, Lincoln is clean, both of the old garage queens are clean. Got bored and thought I would detail the Rhino. LOL

Sprayed all loose mud off with a garden hose, then sprayed all the undercarriage down with Meguiars Citra-Gel, then followed that with the steam jeanie.

Washed the body and wheels with Meguiars Hyper-Wash and microfiber wash mit. Cleaned the tires with Citra-Gel and a stiff bristle brush.

Dried with air and cheapo microfiber towel.

Followed up with Meguiars #17 plastic cleaner and Meguiars #10 plastic polish on the plastic.

Hyper-Dressing on the tires, undercarriage, and all black plastic pieces.

Used Meguiars #39 Vinyl cleaner on the seats.

Now for the pics...









continued...

and I thought detailing the cars I rent was bad .. also did a U-Haul once, just because I couldn't stand looking at all the oxidation on the orange hood ..


Good job .

my only question is . where are the before shots ?

(04 RED LARIAT) Sits in corner with a bottle of #9 in hand, nervously rocking back and forth. Looking out the window at a black Range Rover with swirls, sitting in the parking lot.

When I saw the title to this thread I guessed that 04 did the Rhino. lol. I have to agree that it looks better than it did on the showroom floor. Also, where are the before shots??????

(everybody) "Hi Rockpick and F-150Sport03"
"Hi, my name is tiny1, I too am a detailaholic but in my case I don't seem to have enough time to detail the beast"
(tiny1) sits in another corner and is wondering why 04 RED LARIET is rocking back and forth nervously holding a bottle of #9????

Look at the swirls and oxidation on my daily driver...Ok guys, put your #80 and #83 down. It is going to be okay. This is the first step in recovering from being a detailaholic.

Seriously every single time I wash my truck now (except claying) I do the inteded list you guys gave me a while back! lol I am called obsessed by all my friends and family but here I feel normal

my only thought looking at this is: Bring it to me, I don't have anything going on next weekend, and I have some stuff I'd love to try on it.

I was looking out the window at the Range Rover with swirl marks, wanting to go to it.

I didn't get any before shots. Never crossed my mind until I finished it.:o
