Black Tahoe Adams 2 Weeks Later

Took me two weeks to finish. Did one section a night. I am happy with the results. Black Tahoe sure is sharp but man my arms are sore.

Wow! Great job!

I just did an eighteen-hour run on my 04' Onyx Black Canyon yesterday. I thought it was hopeless, but I stood corrected. I only had 3M and Meguiar's products at my disposal. That will change, soon, based on all of these Adams threads! Even with just 3M compounds, and Meguiar's final polish and polymer sealant, it's like a giant Canyon-shaped mirror.

A little TLC with the PC buffer and I got the black looking great on my truck as well. I didn't get any pics yet, however. I needed some motivation.

Unfortunately, for me though, factory application of paint was less-than-stellar. The orange peel is brutal, thickness is very non-uniform, and the paint is starting to crack (crow's feet) on the hood and roof, no matter how well I've tried to maintain it. Kansas sun during the day at work took its toll.

The application of the paint on your Tahoe looks light years better than my Canyon! You took your time and did a fantastic job! Great work. Black is a labor of love!

If you get the CTS-V, post lots of pics! That car is next on my list.
