Ken:
Good looking---I do not think I ever saw your H2 before. I have some unanswered PM's to you. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>John, I don't have anything on my list or in my email from you so I sent you a pm.
Thanks for the compliments. The guy did a very nice job and it was well worth it. Would you believe that is the first wax job the truck has ever had?
Dennis, no on the cleaner, but that would be cool. However, they just moved into their new building and put a lift in the drive through. I was telling a couple guys there it would be great for cleaning undercarriages.
Bob, never painted. But there is some rust up there. I just didn't tilt the camera that far up.
Who says shiney trucks can't get dirty?!

Lookin' good Kenya! I had mine done yesterday too. Looks better than the day I picked it up.
No rust here either. The VA trucks must be better.
Mine was $190 Although these guys came to the house and did it. 2 guys, 4 hours. Very happy with the job they did. All the pinstripes are gone!
Exterior:
Multi-step process...body and wheels hand washed, bugs and tar are removed from the vehicle, exterior is clayed to remove surface contaminates, paint is safely polished to remove swirl marks and minor scratches, Menzerna wax is hand applied to protect the paint and give the finish a better than new shine, exterior trim and tires dressed, windows cleaned, door jams detailed.
Interior:
Full vacuuming. Carpets and floor mats shampooed, scuff marks removed, vinyl and leather cleaned, seats cleaned, all interior panels detailed, all dirt removed from cracks and crevices, windows cleaned.

Dan,
Did it feel good having all of the dirt removed from your crevices? ....What you paid seems pretty reasonable for an @ home job with 2 guys, especially if they did a good job....

Ken,
What did they charge you to clean it up?

I did mine on Tuesday. I took it to one of those quarter car washes to get the big stuff off and to spray the undercarriage off. Then I bought it home for a full wash and wax. My undercarriage still looks pretty ****ty.

There's still dirt tucked up there. But it sure looks nice now. Some dirt and mud, but not much.
