Buffing Old Paint and Peeling Clear Coat on the 85 F-150. Huge Difference!

  • Bringing out the shine on my old 35 year old paint was far easier than I thought it would be. All it took was a little time, elbow grease, a buffer, some pads, and some compound and my truck's paint job went from dull and ugly to shiny and much less ugly!
    Before I buffed the paint I had to make sure everything was clean, so I pressure washed, hand washed, and then used clay bar on the entire truck. Then I used a Harbor Freight buffing pad along with a Tacklife buffer and Meguire's Ultimate Compound to achieve my paint correction. I'm thrilled with the results.
    Once everything was done I put on some Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray Coating. We'll see how it holds up. I might do a video in the future discussing how it does over the course of a year. For more information on it or to see how it stacks up vs the competition, see Project Farm's video here: • Best Ceramic Spray Coa...
    The only part of the truck that I couldn't really do anything with was the hood, but you'll see that in the video. The paint there is just too far gone. I have a plan for that though in an upcoming video.
    Update! See how the truck looks and how this job held up after three years in the harsh NM sun.

    Here's the stuff I used to make this happen:

    Compound: amzn.to/3rAtTbx

    Ceramic Coating: amzn.to/3tBad9a

    Got a 83 back in oct with 62000miles. Fell in love Now I'm a Ford guy. Rebuilt the carb and now I'm buffing it. Keep them coming .

    This truck looks great! The buff and polish really dressed it up. I think you should continue with the philosophy of "Make it better than it was" when you're making changes to the truck. It's a good way to have fun, enjoy yourself, and not get burnt out.

    The truck looks great. I actually have the 94 version in the same short bed and bright red color but my hood and roof are worse than yours. I did a clay and one step polish and brought back the shine. Your video is making me want to cut and ceramic it. I definitely think I will sand and repaint/clear the hood and roof. Keep up the good work.

    It would definitely serve for most people's taste, just having a shinier looking rig than before, though most folks would opt to have the neighbor kid do the work for them. He works for Vapes & Video games, not real life pursuits like house payments and vacations. Take care!

    Lightly spray the pad with water and use a good amount of compound and let the compound do its job. What you are doing is feeding the oil back in the paint...take your time!
