Cleaned up the FX4 yesterday
I waxed my 05 FX4 today. I started out by claybaring, then used my trusty Porter Cable buffer, along with Meguiar's #83, followed by #80, and topped with NXT. I just bought the truck a couple weeks ago, so this is the first time I've waxed it. Meguiar's Hyper Dressing was used on all exterior trim. Meguiar's Hot Shine Tire Spray was used on the tires. I was very pleased how well Dark Shadow Grey looked after some loving care. I was disappointed the pics didn't turn out that great-it looked really good in person though!
