Default Finally got the truck cleaned up

I had a few hours with nothing to do and decided to clean a little on the outside of the truck. It needs a lot more but it's a start.

Come on man; you can do better than that. Shine the tires, get those streaks off the windhsield and polish that chrome ... just messin; it looks as clean as a truck should.

I swear that Armor-All gets a bad rap by some, but I have been using it on weatherstrip and trim pieces for years and nothing but success. My Jeep has those big-a** vinyl/plastic fenders and if Armor-All can keep those from fading (UV damage), then it can handle anything else on a car/truck.

The trim around my fenders (2007 FX4 model) still looks new and I park next to others where the trim looks as if it's about to crack and fall off.

The downside is that you have to repeat applications often (about every week or two) and that it's supposedly not good for the clear coat if you overspray Armor All onto a painted surface and neglect to wipe-off.
