That soap makes me hungry every time I wash my truck. Smells like delicious candy

Yes it does! i love this soap. I also got their air spray and it smells good for about a day and then its gone :(

 

I have the same PW. Are you happy with the foam it produces? Do you get a soupy foam or a snow like foam? Lol for now I'm using mequires gold class for the foam. I'll see how that works before buying some real foam

 

 

 

Oh forgot. Without washing it do you find foaming cleanes it better than just PW'ing it down with just water?

I am very happy with the foam that it produces. On the foam cannon I have I can adjust how much foam I like with a knob on the top of the cannon. I spray it off with the PW and then go over the truck twice with the foam cannon, spray it off and then use a big wash pad with the same soap and go over the truck twice with it, and lastly use the PW to spray off the truck again.

Looks good but nose high. You consider swapping the stock 1" block for the 2 or 3?

Black Light is a glaze - not a sealant.

 

Here's my order I use w/ PC 7424.

 

Black Light

Jet Seal

Butter Wax

Petes 99 100%

 

Good stuff though. CG fan for sure.

Looked at the CG website and missed a few of the items you use. They have a bunch. Black Light is recommended for all dark colors? What about mine? Does it remove light swirl marks like the V line? Have only used 2 step products in the past.

Why would you lower the rear and raise the front? You like the Cali lean? Looks like you have an invisible trailer attached...no offence, to each their own.

Yes the v32, v34, v36, and v38 line works great too. But these aren't required, those are more for vehicles with tons of maintenance required. I typically use V36 & v38 once every 6 months before I apply blacklight.

 

You can definitely add the V-32-38 before you do BlackLight. Blacklight will definitely help with the swirl marks if you have a dark colored vehicle. But the V line will remove swirls marks the best, just use it with the correct type of pad (cutting or polishing pad).

 

For vibrant colors like yellow, red, green ,etc they have a WhiteLight that will work best. But either way the product works great, just make sure to match it with a Jet Seal/Collinite.

why though....

Because I like the look of I wanted to make my truck look like everyone else's truck around where I live I'd just out a 6" lift and 35s with some forces... That's not my style this is I like the stuffed look. I also installed all this stuff on my truck myself I didn't have a shop do it for me...

    • Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.
    • 10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O. 
    • Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.    
    • apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.
    • yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
