Before....

After.....







I used Nu-finish wax . Took about 30 mins per side. Rub on , rub off. No buffing required. $6.99 a bottle. Water beads off now ! Works on windshield too... Better than Rain-x !

Nu Finish is actually a polish. It contains no wax at all.

But that stuff does work good though. My dad has been using it for years.
We always use it on the bottom of our canoe to make it glide easier in the water.

Keep in mind this generally only works well for trucks with single stage paint jobs.

Wrong. It's a polish that works on any paint and or clear coat, not just single stage paint. And sorry for calling or wax - it's a polish. My truck wasn't washed since 2006 lol, that's factory paint/clear coat

Did the same to my old 90. Same color. Just wax it after using new finish. But don't you dare take it in a automatic car wash or a quarter wash. The soaps will eat away all that hard work and leave streaks. Believe me I had the same truck and paint. Wash by hand and use a quality car soap and sponge. Or you'll be waxing every time you wash it. Just my experience ha

If you think it's bad on a red truck. Try washing my black one at the car wash
I have to hand wash and dry every time, otherwise it looks worse then before i washed it.
