Go to start washing the truck last night and I find numerous rust spots the size of a pin head. Anyone else experiencing this?Gonna be waxing it today, but I wasn't real pleased to see that.

 

lots of waxing is a good thing and almost a necessity! In my experience with my past Ram's, DC does a very poor job with painting. Every paint job I've seen on these truck is poor including my current truck. Some area's have a very nice high gloss finish and others it looks like they gave up on.

I'd keep an eye on those spots. I'd be much easier to take care of a pin head problem than a whole panel and wax, wax, wax !!

 

yeah....I've have many DC products in the past and have never had this issue, however, I wax the crap out of them. Only thing I had rust was the bumper paint. I'm guessing this guy always kept it clean, however it was just a run through a car wash. Doesn't appear to have been waxed too much.

Whats everyone's choice for wax?

 

LOL .... I was gonna ask the same thing.

Last time I waxed my truck believe it or not, I used good ole Turtle Wax. The same stuff my Grandfather used to use. I was feeling nostalgic. MAN did I forget how tuff it was to get off if you left it on too long !!!! I did it the way you normally would. Wax the whole hood, and then the fender while you were waiting for the hood to haze real good. Then you go back to rub the wax off of the hood and IT IS STUCK on there !! Now, it's stuck on the fender because it took you so long to get it off of the hood.

What a mess ...

I now use one of those electric 10" buffers mostly because I'm lazy. I'm actually thinking about getting another one and then I'll have 2 ... One for" Wax on " and one for " Wax off ". We'll see.

So yeah ... what kinda wax do you guy's use ??

 

 

Jakebrake uses the same thing I do. Its not as tenacious as good 'ol Turtle Wax and gives you a very very nice shine.

 

I use Meguiars also I waxed my truck, it rained for a week and my truck still looks good.

 

I only seem to get the pin sized rust spots on my front and rear bumper...right in the chrome.
I used Turtle Wax Chrome Polish/Rust Remover, and worked like a dream. And it shines, baby shines!

In regards to wax, I use "Mothers" products.

 

Klasse or zaino three step waxes are absolutely amazing. For my dad the other day I took his truck for about three days to do the polishing, sealing , then a nice coat of meguires gold class paste wax and it looks amazing. Took out all the swirl scratches and made the truck shine like no tommorrow.
