    This truck was booked for a single step swirl removal.

    The owner really likes to take good care of his vehicles, even though he uses his truck as a truck, and his suv hauls kids around.

    F-350 Super Duty is a TON of surface area, holy crap.

    Anywho.

    11 hours later in the blazing sun, I was exhausted so my final pictures are pretty terrible. Bear with me here, :p

    Oh, and I wiped off the excess tire dressing after the pictures were taken, they were much more matte once I did. I do not like them THAT shiney.

    Hope you enjoyed the detail, it was a lot of work. I think he's booking me for his Wife's black Armada in a week or two. Should be fun also!

    about 90% correction. The owner was more than pleased and asked me to proceed from there! Of course I offered to cut a little deeper to get it perfect for more $$$, but he said that was good enough.
