Second Owner Blues, previous owner acid washed the hood/fenders

New paint job will take care of all that. What your worried about is cosmetic. I would focus more making sure the engine is running top notch. When it runs..... it makes money.

 

You need a detail guy to chime in. Do you have an instagram account? I could point to a few fellas that might could help you out.

 

You run in dirt and haul logs who cares what it looks like just go make money

 

If u runnin down some of the log trails ive seen, by the time u get back up the trail the trucks got a whole different paint color anyways hah, im sure somebody here is a paint expert but u could find somethin on youtube if not here

 

Have you tried plain old polishing compound? Try it first, or carefully use rubbing compound, then polishing compound. I think it’s called DuPont # 7. If that doesn’t work try light water sanding w/ 1000 . Or very carefully 600 then 1000. Check into it first, as I’m going from memory only.

 

Honestly, go look for a good detail guy.
Or just run it as is.
Alternately, get a vinyl wrap.

 

If it’s ‘05 I’m guessing that it’s clear coat. I’m thinking the clear is probably shot and there might not be any saving the paint.
A day cab, single color, quality base/clear coat, by a quality shop will be in the area of 10,000.00
