I finally got to try out all the Meguiars products that I bought on my own vehicle, and I must say I am very impressed!! I really love the G100 I bought.

First I washed and clayed my truck, then I took my Makita rotary buffer to it with a W8000 pad and some #83 DACP, next up was some #81 hand polish with the G100 and a W8006 pad, then I put 2 coats of Tech Wax with the G100 and a W9006 pad, cleaned it all up with the Ultimate wipes.

took me about 8 hours, but it was worth it, I'll try and get some better pics, in some better light.

Awesome paint! No offense intended but the tires need a little work to match that paint.

Sweet! I love big black trucks!

I hear you one being tried when you were done, when I do mine I try to make it a two day project so I don't get tried and start taking short cuts.
looks awsome!

I am from Plain City.

My truck has about 7 inches of lift on it, it barely fits in my garage by about 1/4 of an inch, and I had to do a few mods to the garage to get it in

Nice work!

Have you tried the Ultimate Bonnett to get the wax off? I used it on my wifes SUV yesterday, it will really save you some time.
