Your truck is AWESOME! I'm jealous. Reminds me of the same truck body style for the 1966 Chevy Milk Truck I had at one time and will forever regret selling. Mike

Just confirmed this 2007 Ford Shelby GT 500 Convertible 2007 Ford Shelby Mustang GT 500 More cars getting added, stay tuned. Mike

And in Italian 1,268 Sì, considererei i tuoi risultati accettabili. Tieni a mente l'aspetto del veicolo PRIMA del trattamento. Chiunque ne sia il proprietario: o l'ha acquistato NUOVO e poi non se ne è preso cura — e per questo ora fa schifo; OPPURE L'ha acquistato usato, e chi lo possedeva...

Itialian English Yes I would consider your results acceptable. Keep in mind how the vehicle looked BEFORE. Whoever owns this either bought it NEW and then didn't take care of it - so it looks like crap. OR The person that owns it bought it used and whoever owned it before them didn't...

My guess is the previous owner's practice of maintaining the single stage paint using Penetrol/Linseed Oil is what's maintained it to the point it's in currently. Some will argue that applying a seed oil to old single stage paint isn't the correct way, but at a minimum, having the oil present...

Italian to English translation Hi Super Mike, I had a look at the Dynabrade DB8E, wow it really looks like a "beast"! I can't wait to see your video and beg YouTube to translate it Stay tuned... Mike

I usually have some kind of answer for most questions, but in this instance - I have nothing. The last time I used a product from Chemical Guys, their abrasive technology left micro-marring in the paint. After that - never again. Amazing - my write-up for this project is still on the AGO...

Chemical Guys V36 Optical Grade Cut Polish Mike Phillips

Simple technique but works great and everywhere I go I take my hand. LOL I just purchased the Harbor Freight Infrared Laser Thermometer as we're shooting a new video this week and next week where will cover both methods of gauging surface temperature, you hand and this instrument. AMES...

Also - to translate your Italian to English, I simply copy and paste what you write into Google Translate - work pretty well. Here's the link. If possible, type your message on the left side of the 2 boxes and then you can choose which language to switch your text to via selection options on...

Here's my reply in Italian Con una roto-orbitale forzata puoi ottenere una maggiore capacità di taglio grazie alla sua potenza; inoltre, riesci a completare il lavoro più velocemente, poiché non devi perdere tempo a *cercare* di mantenere la rotazione del tampone mentre lucidi pannelli della...

Here's translation, If you can find a gear-driven orbital in Italy, then I would recommend getting a gear-driven orbital before getting a rotary . With a gear-driven orbital, you can cut faster due to the power, but you can also get the job done faster as you don't have to waste time TRYING...

I good with that but I would highly recommend doing the Baggie Test after washing and drying the car. If you get lucky, it's possible the paint will feel smooth as glass and you don't need to clay. Also - claying tends to mar paint, at least soft paint. On a white or light colored car, you...

You have a good plan. Being pro-active at cleaning and protecting the paint and other surfaces is the most important thing you can do for a new car, (any car actually), especially if it's going to be parked outside 24/7. Like the saying goes - something is better than nothing - so go with your...
