    Had the great pleasure of detailing a client's beautiful Sierra. Truck was in great condition considering he lives on a range road.

    Truck was covered in tar and required elbow grease, tarminator, and claying.
    Chrome wheels received polishing and some colli 845.
    Deeper scratches received a 4" orange/teal pads with m105/m205
    The rest of the paint received a mild polish of poli-seal, topped with colli845, and a final topping of wolfgang detailing spritz.

    Every 1/2 panel looked like this(lots of tar, crazy edmonton roads!)

    While shaking my bottle I obviously didn't close it properly :(

    nice turnaround for sure. Those rims were in rough looking shape. But tell this guy that if he wants to put rims that big on a truck that hes gotta get a big brake kit. Looks so funny with huge rims and tiny little rotors.

    I don't mean to be rude: I hate those types of rims, I call them Harley Davidson style, sorry they don't agree with me but you obviously even made disgusting rims looks nice

    I don't mind the wheels, just don't like the rubber band style tires!

    You did a really good job!

    Jason -

    Wow, that poor thing gets beat up - his dirt driveway does not help either ! :)

    You did a great job eliminating the damaged area - looks like something hit it and went over it, or was something laid on it and pulled off instead of lifting it off ?

    I have always loved GMC trucks; ;you certainly made this one look better than new !!

    Thanks for sharing !

    LOOKS GREAT!

    The Collinite bottles are garbage ...... the lid/cap won't tighten completely and they're just waiting to spooge all over you!

    Good job on the truck bro,

    I second the big brakes, When hes Towing/big load the stopping distance must be huge.
