    Default Clay barred the R/T

    Some of you on FB or twitter may have seen these already.

    Dirtybird helped me take a clay bar to the truck yesterday.
    I can't believe we didn't get a before shot, it was pretty brutal.
    Drove it all winter, and the trip to Milwaukee last week did a number.

    Here is a progress shot. Notice how thrilled Matt looks.

    And better yet, he didn't want to take pics of it after, so I was on my own.
    I'm pretty sure he resents the fact that out of all his pics on flickr,
    the shots of my truck still get the most hits

    The tires weren't really clean, and I turned them the wrong way.
    I'm no photographer, so don't worry about it. But damn the body is smooth







    Then today we were heading up to Nachos in Imlay City and the freeway was clear so he snapped a couple of rolling shots. Here's one:

    It's my fault for making it look so easy.

    White is soooooo sweet when it's clean.

    What did you use after you clayed? I'd protect it with a sealant or wax....

    Not keeping it waxed is what got me in this mess in the first place

    It's no fun though. I'm hoping maybe one of the detail sponsors wants to trade some work for a detail the next time it needs cleaned
