    Question on undercoating with Amsoil HDMP

    1) No, I did not remove them. Just use the straw attachment to reach in and spray the top-side of the skid plats, the the undersides of the truck parts above the skid plates. 2) Yes, mask the wheels off. Do get in behind the wheels and coat the suspension components the best you can. 3)...

    Ford Emblem on Non-Applique Tailgate

    I don't know how the emblem on the '17 is attached, but the '14 only had two posts with metal retainer clips, and you could remove it by getting a small screwdriver under and and pulling straight back. My guess is the '17 has alignment posts and foam tape, as this was the case on the '16...

    Your truck looks good! Was the paint machine polished before the coating was applied?

    The warmer weather has been nice, but it is making it more difficult to find a pile to park on. And yes, I know it is filthy, but the forecast for the next four days is rain, so maybe next weekend it will get the Adam's spa treatment.

    All of that came from one trip through the car wash, or did the dealer install some of the swirls? Unfortunately, Paint Sealant will not remove any scratches, nor will any wax. Some of these products from other brands might contain fillers, like the Brilliant Glaze does, but these will only...

    When the weather decides to get above freezing so I can wash the truck and see how it works for making cleaning easier. This winter has been one of the coldest on record. Stinkin' 2 degrees F yesterday morning!

    Wheel Well Coating To provide better protection on the plastic wheel wells, and to make cleaning easier, I applied Ceramic Trim Coating while the wheels were off the truck. The Ceramic Trim Coating Kit comes with everything you need for the application. I started by washing the truck...

    Ceramic Coating on Wheels To provide better protection on the wheels, and to make cleaning easier, I applied Ceramic Paint Coating while the wheels were off the truck. Note that I actually coated these wheels last month, before Ceramic Wheel Coating was released, hence the use of the Ceramic...

    Wheel Cleaning and Polishing While I routinely deep clean the wheels and tires twice a year when I take them off to rotate them, after 2.5 years they were in need of a machine polish to remove minor swirls and a few larger scratches from having fun in the sand dunes. I lifted the truck with...

    Adam's Polishes BLACK FRIDAY SALE!

    New stuff is here already! The hoodies are lighter-weight material, which is nice for the detailing hustle. They do seem to run about a half-size small, so you might go for a bigger size than you usually wear, to make room for the holiday treats! Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    What are the best ways to clean a raptor?

    Thanks man! Megs M21 would protect the painted surfaces and headlights, but what kind of sealant do you use on the rest of the front end, like the grill, plastic vents, bumperettes, and windshield?

    What are the best ways to clean a raptor?

    You might be interested to know that using Simple Green to clean bugs off the front strips off any wax or sealant that you previously applied, leaving no protection on the paint, which then makes it even harder the clean the bugs off the next time. To make bugs easier to remove without...

    Great job man! Wicked reflection shots and shine, especially on white paint I don't really use the red Geoimpression Tool. While having it to hold onto for a handle was nice, it just took to much time to get the clay stretched over it. While the old gray clay was sticky, most people...

    Add a Hose Y-Connector to your pressure washer so you can quickly switch between regular water and the filtered water. Then it just takes a couple seconds to switch the shut-offs from one to the other. Also remember that any water in the pressure washer hose after you switch to DI water for...
