BEFORE

AFTER

I was surprised to find that even good quality microfiber towels were causing fine scratches in this paint.
It was necessary to use a very high quality borderless microfiber towels to remove the polish for inspection.

Is that your truck Merlin? I owned a 2004 F250 Harley Ed. I loved the truck but am glad I now own a Raptor!

The very high quality MF is a great recommendation and something that will not only work for the micromarring but for the smearing (as I found out the hard way)

No. I was commissioned to go to Grand Cayman to polish and CQF this awesome truck.
Gotta love Crazy Pile!
