^^ Yeup! As far as spray wax is concerned, they are the best. But I still think I am going to stick with my Meguiars NXT and Mothers F/X as far as real wax goes.

I have used just about every spray wax you can buy off the shelves, but I haven't tried the fukken wax. I might as well since the guy is in my area, but I have no need really.

IMO, only use a spray wax when you are looking for a little bit of shine in half the time. You just can't get the same results that you could with some elbow grease and a nice carnuba based wax.

That said, with all the ones I've tried, I prefer Turtle Wax Ice and it seems to do OK for me. Nothing too amazing, but it does bring out some shine.

For those of you with black trucks, try Turtle Wax Black. It's a three stage polish, sealer, and wax that puts just about the most amazing shine in a black vehicle that I have ever seen.

how does the Turtle Wax Black do on Rust?

My truck was a farm truck before I got it, so it has more dents, dings, and scratches than I can shake a forest at. Not to mention rusted rockers, and doors. The usual places...

I hear ya man. I have scratching all over my truck. From the accident, someone raking their truck down the side of mine in a parking lot, and just many hours tromping through fields. I hate it. It's to the point that I don't even want to wash the truck anymore for fear of knocking off another hunk of paint.

It is a good thing that we are starting to sand and pull dents sometime next week to get her ready for a full on two stage paint job. No more blending, and I'm going to kill if I find a spot where it has been dry sprayed. For $1200+ Materials, it better have a gloss to it.

Nah. Plans are to go back to factory as much as possible. (The rear bumper stays!) The only thing I'm considering is a billet grille badge. Haven't decided yet.

Yeah, that does suck. But i wonder if someone would rhino line there entire truck! That would be cool, but then i wonder if you can add paint into the rhino liner mix?...hmm. No scratches... I wanna see if anyone has yet done this.
