My truck was used as a work truck for all its life. With 201k miles its had quite a life. The paint is a rare two year only color called dark autumnwood brown (WA161A). This color is where I got the name 24 Karat Brown. Its brown (duh) with gold flakes in the metallics. The paint was trashed and oxidized pretty bad. I used a Walmart special DA and Scratch X2.0 to polish after claying. No I am not kidding. after that I used some Meguiars hybrid liquid wax to seal the deal (pun intended).

The first photo is a before shot of the passenger fender

wish people around me were so considerate, no door dings, chips or dents. 200k miles on work truck, everything buffed out, nice.
No gravel roads down there? those tires look like rock throwers.
