Lipstick on a Pig

Nothing special here, just thought I'd post up a quick wash I did on the winter beater. I had never washed this vehicle since I bought it in October and it was driven through a brutal winter. I'm trying to sell it so I did a quick wash and interior cleanup on it. All I did was wash the exterior and wipe down the interior with APC, spot treat the carpets and any stains there were on the headliners or seats, and give it a good vac. Didn't want to put too much time into it as 99% of buyers will not care whether the paint is swirled or not, especially on a 10 year old truck.

If anything was the most dramatic, it would be the wheel cleaning, really cleaned up the appearance of the car. Props to Adam's Deep Wheel Cleaner (1:1) with a boars hair brush.

Hey that's my saying! (lipstick on a pig)

Looks good, and of all places, you wash on a basketball court?!

Btw, your phone # can be figured out in the last photo.
