did you have the famed orange peel?

Ya, most every american car has that. The clay doesn't take that away but fixes everything else lol

Nice job! I spend about 2 weeks every year pouring over my current truck in late February detailing it from top to bottom for show season.. this is the first year in 5 that I detailed it but won't be showing it. I will spend one of those weeks solely on the paint, undercarriage and suspension... I am more than OCD my annual order from ADS normally is never less than 750 bucks on detailing supplies!

Damn.. so since your a pro in my book.. can i get some tips? this is my first car and i like to keep it clean when im not in the muddy trails.

That fx I would say you NEED to keep that undercarriage clean. Chrome doesn't look good dirty lol

Im a bit OCD so I detail the interior about once a week. I wash it (pending on weather) every 2 weeks or so. I have a big box of stuff I keep everything in, armorall, leather conditioner, wax, quick detailer, tire shine, car soap, bug/tar off, window cleaner, rain x, and a ton of microfiber towels. This was my first time using a clay bar, it was easier than I expected and I highly recommend it.

If I was to take my Raptor to a car show I would show up with the Raptor covered in delicious mud Speaking of which, I have an SVTOA meeting today. Need to get the truck muddy. I do not want to be giving the wrong impression!
