Early Spring REVIVAL! - 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins Diesel

Hey guys, so yesterday and today are both forecasted to be mid-upper 50s and possibly lick the lower 60s so i decided now would be a PERFECT time to try out some new stuff i got for Christmas as well as get the driveway and vehicles cleaned up!

Yesterday i started on my big lummox of a truck. Process/product use below as well as before and after pics.



Process:

Truck was pre-rinsed, washed and rinsed with my new 1650 PSI pressure washer, which i feel has nowhere near 1650 PSI, but works ok and would be awesome with a foam lance!

* Wash - Gold Class wash with 2 bucks and Grit Guards (NEEDED THOSE BAAAAD)
* Wheels/Exh. Tip - Hot Rims All Wheel Cleaner, agitated and rinsed
* Tires/Mudflaps - Westleys Bleche-Wite, agitated and rinsed
* Fender Guards - Gold Class wash with long handled bristle brush (after truck was washed)

Nothing was dressed and no wax/sealent was applied to my truck this time around. On to the pics!
