Ford Raptor - Detailed!

[RooflessVW]

I know you do exceptional work, I was just curious. Some people prefer the shiny look, I like a nice matte finish.

I can't stand shiny/slimy interior dressings.

Too "used car chic" for me.

How do people not wash their cars for 6 months? Even a quick rinse twice a month will be way less work (and money) than having to hire a pro for a full day. I dunno, I guess some people just treat cars like appliances.

Truck looks good, I don't envy having to clean that.

I’m like you - I can’t stand a nasty, dirty vehicle.

It’s sad that people pay that kind of money for a truck as cool and as nice as the Raptor, and then treat it horribly like that.

It's just a dirty truck. I try not to judge people. Not everyone has the ability or inclination.

Does it look horrible now? I think it was treated well.

Gorgeous! Gotta be worth $99500 in today's market all prettied up like that.

How many miles on the clock? The steering wheel looks very used

Just shy of 50k.

That's hand grime in the before photo. It all came clean.

Looks amazing, great job!.

You have my respect. That's a helluva lot of real estate to deal with. The before of the steering wheel pretty much spells out the condition of everything else. You sure earned your keep on this one

Looks very good. You did an excellent job. My dad has a black first gen that would look good with a detail like this.

I forget SVT is no longer. It’s now Ford Performance. Can’t wait for the V8 to come out. People put vocal exhausts on these and unfortunately a GM 4.3 V6 sounds meaner.

It's a whole lot of truck. Owners estimated it hadn't been washed for 6 months. Looks like it:

Used 3D One and an orange Hex-Logic Quantum pad with my rotary to remove some trail stripes and sealed it up with Nanoskin Nano-Shock.

Guy needs to take a shower before he gets back in that truck now.
