It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

Hey JasonD45, what kind of polish did you use and where did you get it? Was it hand applied or done with a buffer? Your truck turned out looking great! I'd love to try to do that to mine before the paint fades and peels any further than it already has!

Wow, that buffed out nice.  Looks like you did a lot of hard work.

I used liquid glass. It was so simple to use! Hand applied, in the sun. It's kind of expensive, ($30-35 for the can) but clearly well worth it. I applied 2 coats, 1 coat on 2 separate days. The best part is, the longer it sits in the sun after removal, the better it shines. I wish I knew more about preserving patina, but unfortunately I don't, I'm heavily into maintaining all my vehicles current appearance. I feel like that will be were I can offer the most help. But back to the polish, I'll send over a picture of the can, it's easy to look past, looks like it's still from the 70's
