One of my favs on white is P21s. This is Optimum Polish, PB EX-P topped w/P21s






IW845 is good too. I have it on my truck now. I think P21s looks better even though it doesnt seem to last long. I might have to go back to it this weekend.

I know I have told you before, but that is a nice looking truck.

I've had pretty good luck with Zaino on my truck, as the following picture shows:



Then again, I just tried Collonite Insulator Wax and here's the results:



Man I wish I didn't have to take those 20's off for the winter!

Hi, So I am guessing the best way to start over is using a good paint cleaner. Where can I find this P21s? Here is a picture of the truck right after liquid glass, which somebody referred to me as something good on white but i do not like it. Also I might try the PB's route

Shoot, I think your truck looks good.

to start over you have to remove all the wax that is there.

Wash with Dawn is one way or wash and then clay it. After you clay, since you are using Poorboys, SSR1 will remove old product if clay doesn't get it all. Then use Pure Polish or PwC PwS or pure polish.

Then seal it and wax it, and the sealant is optional.

Didn't we cover this already?

Yup... just a what you would say a newb at this stuff. I will have to experiment this weekend and post some pics. I just want the best "pop" out of this white. White is just alot of up keep it seems, it rains then it looks like i haven't' even done anything. I start to get the good ole dark dirt streaks and drips along with dirt partials galore. Even those little bugs love it when i detail the truck, they cling to the wax right after i wax it. Thank god for QD.

Those trucks are looking VERY nice... Sleekstack-- man, that especially looks BEAUTIFUL...

As for Liquid Glass, remember that it is more of a suran wrap type of shine-- the carnaubas will deepen it a LOT and add some pop (although it will be a LOT less noticable on white as opposed to black, silver, JP's red, etc). I think you will find PBs to suit you, as would a #21/#26 combo.

This is what I used on my Oxford White truck. Highly recommend Collinite 845 used as LSP, but very thin.

2 bucket grit guard wash with Megs Gold Class Wash & mits
Air blower dried
Clay with Megs blue clay and #34
Apply blue painters tape to trim
Apply Megs #80 w/ G100 DA - W8006 pad
Apply Clearkote Vanilla Moose w/ G100 DA - W9006 pad
Apply Poorboy's EX-P w/ G100 DA - W8006 pad
Apply Collinite 845 w/ G100 DA - W9006 pad
Apply Megs gel on tires. 2 coats w/ Foam Tire Dressing Applicator Pad.

Thanks for the compliment RollingRock, f-150sport03. I'm about to polish my truck even though it looks like in may rain. I'm going to top it with Red Moose Glaze and P21s. I got another bottle of Optimum Opti-Seal the other day. I might try it again.
