Looks good, seems like everyone took advantage of the nice weather this weekend and detailed ther trucks I did the opposite and went wheeling on the beach and dunes and got covered in mud. I spent hours yesterday getting mud and sand off the truck but all together a great day.

I washed and UQD'd mine yesterday and did the windows. That's enough work for one day.

That is actually the "wonderful" Fox River. It used to be pretty nasty but has cleaned up alot in the past 20 years. As for the products. I just did a simlple 2 bucket wash with Megs car soap and followed that with some scratch-X in spots. I used alot of tar and bug remover seeing as I had'nt fully detailed since Nov. I was satisfied enough with the finish so I just threw on a coat of NXT. It really brought the Mountaineer to life, I'll have to get some sunny shots of that thing. It has the 3 coat pearl and it pop's really good in the sun. For the tires and wheel wells i scrubbed them with simple green and than used a F1 tire swipe to apply some Megs Hotshine.
