    2893283A-F856-43A3-97FA-D1EBE40E445F.jpg Washed truck twice and did Clay bar to all with soapy suds from wash bucket. Used Torq DA buffer with Meguire’s cleaner wax on entire truck. Finished up with some final seal wax that came with my DA kit. Looks great! I was just wondering if anyone uses other buffing pads besides the foam ones? Like are there better choices like wool or cotton. Thanks. D

    I use the chemicalguys stuff, for pads I have the hexlogic currently but am looking at some of their others to purchase soon. I washed my 2012 yesterday for the first time since purchase (bought a week ago) to get the stealership crap off but ran out of time to get the torq da after it. Yours looks awesome. Hopefully mine can shine up like that.
