JBlack151 Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 Detailed a Sienna for a customer this weekend. Told her it would require a full day of time. When I arrived at 8:00 in the morning she tells me they forgot they have to leave no later than 5:00 for their daughters concert. Because of this I had to get to work and was unable to do any before shots Overall the van was about a 6 out of 10 for it's condition. She was a pleasure to work for since she told me she like her cars detailed twice a year and she just bought this last week. She wanted to get that "new car" feeling. I respected that a lot. She already wants me to come back in the fall to do it again. When I was done both her and her husband had some serious face melt! That's all I could ask for Here's the process. Total Time: 8.5 Hours Weather: 75 degrees - Sunny 2011 Toyota Sienns Red Salsa Peral Exterior Light Gray Leather Interior 22,000 miles - CUC on floor mats and carpets - APC on all weather floor mats - Leather & Interior on all seats and panels - Leather Conditioner - Glass Cleaner on Interior - APC on tires & fender walls with Fender & Tire Brush - GWC on rims with Boars Hair Wheel Brush - Turbo Stick Wheel Cleaner - APC on engine bay - Light hose down on engine bay with Fire Hose Nozzle - 2 Bucket Wash System - Car Shampoo with Foam Gun - Merino Wash Mitt on upper portion - Jumbo Wash Pad on lower portion - Spray Down with Fire Hose Nozzle - Sheet Rinse Process - Blaster Sidekick Blow Down - GWDT wipe down - Clay Bar with Detail Spray - SVRT on tires, trims & roof racks - Wipe Down Engine Bay - In & Out Spray with SVRT in engine bay - Undercarriage Spray on fender walls and frame - Swirl & Haze Remover with PC - Fine Machine Polish with PC - 2 Coats of Quick Sealant (30 min cure time between each application) - Brilliant Glaze with red 4th gen pad on PC - Americana Paste Wax - Glass Cleaner on exterior windows Thanks for looking everyone!!!

mcotton Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 My wife has this same exact car except it is a 2012 and the seats are cloth not leather. Very nice car to detail as the red pops and looks awesome after a detail. She teases me as it looks better after a detail than my 2010 Camaro. Here are two shots from my last detail. Great job on the van.
sjb89 Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 WOW ! Excellent job. Looks better than new. Were the wheel barrels hard to get clean? What did you use as a final wipe down on the dash?
JBlack151 Posted May 17, 2012 Author Posted May 17, 2012 WOW ! Excellent job. Looks better than new. Were the wheel barrels hard to get clean? What did you use as a final wipe down on the dash? For the barrels I used a little APC with mostly GWC and the Turbo Stick. Everything came off with no hard work at all. For the dash I used SVRT and a wipe down with a utility towel.
