Finally found the time, well made myself find the time lol, to do a correction and coating on my truck. It took me a while to want to dive into this because of how big the MFer is and I knew it was going to take some work and a whole lot of time to get it done. I kept it pretty simple for this go around and I am pretty impressed with how it turned out. I'll go ahead and list what products I used as well, since I know a lot usually like to know.
-Rupes LHR15
-Orange Lake Country pads
-Meguiars M101 (supposed to be a heavy cut with a an orange pad and I noticed it got probably 95% of swirls out on ONE pass, which was exactly what I was looking for. It actually finished a lot better than I was expecting too, gloss wise.)
-CarPro Eraser
-CarPro CQuartz UK
Like stated above, I kept it simple with a one pass correction as the swirls on this truck really weren't bad. Also, while doing this, I decided to ditch some chrome on it. I took off the chrome emblems and put some black ones on it that my brother had gotten me for Christmas, last year LOL, as well as took off the chrome door trim. Glad I did it because it looks so much cleaner in my eyes.
Here's how it looked before:

Yes, I know the steps are still filthy and it needs tint lol which is happening in a few days. It's supposed to be sunny tomorrow so I plan on going out and getting some better pics of the paint in the sun because it looks incredible with how deep and glossy it is now after the cut/coating.
