LowNslo Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 (edited) This customer wanted a few scratches removed and a good all over single stage polish. His main concern were the wheels and the interior. Products used: Interior- Vacuum Adams leather and interior cleaner Adams Full interior Detailer Adams Leather conditioner 2 Adams Edgeless utility towel Adams interior brush Exterior- Adams bucket Adams Deep wheel Cleaner Adams fender brush APC Micro mitt for wheels Second bucket for paint(only one bucket because I was doing a correction) Dawn dish soap (strip the paint) Adams VRT w/sponge Adams Undercarriage Spray with dirty job towel Adams Sidekick Adams GWDT Adams Clay bar w/Quick Detailer Adams Quick Sealant Adams Buttery Wax Polishing- Flex 3401 Orange Pad Adams Paint Correcting Polish Adams Quick Detailer 3m 3k grit sand papaer for scratches I started with the interior getting it all vacuumed out and free of debris. I then used Leather and interior cleaner on all the seats, console, door steps and any other areas of high traffic and buildup of junk. After it was clean, I used the Interior detailer (awesome new tool from Adams). It left the dash a awesome matte finish and dried really well without streaks or greasy film. Then I dialed in the seats with the adams brush and leather conditioner. I moved on to the outside where I began on the wheels. First apc on the tires with deep wheel cleaner on the rims. Gave the tires a good scrub (amazingly most people never clean the tires, just re apply shine). These were cleaned properly and the wheels were washed using a micro mitt (for wheels only). Fender wells received a good brushing with the fender brush and some APC. I jumped on the paint using a Jumbo wash mitt and dawn soap to strip the truck..... like there was anything there anyway lol. After a proper washing I moved to shop and began the process of Clay bar then drying using the Sidekick and a Great White drying towel. After the vehicle was dry I grabbed the Flex and the Orange pad with some PCP and went to town. There were a few scratches that had to be corrected but didn't have time for pic on this one! She cleaned up nice and got a coat of Quick sealant and Buttery Wax to top it off. On to the pics! http://s25.photobucket.com/user/lownslo/media/Detailing/Tundra/041_zpsa64a9597.jpg.html All buttoned up!

Aholder Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Very nice. Toyota's are fairly easy to correct and to swirl up. I see it all day long at the dealership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compudiva Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Cool. How long did this take you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j-r35 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Nice job! Really makes me want to actually get going on my own tundra but man, we go camp pretty much every weekend in July, and I know all my hard work on polishing will get jacked once, haha. Quick question, noticed you mentioned rags for the undercarriage spray. Did you spray then wipe w/the rag? Used it for the 1st time last week on my wifes vehicle, turned out nice but noticed it kinda drips so I had to leave paper towels overnight to ensure no staining.

LowNslo Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 Cool. How long did this take you? This job was about 6 hours with two people. I have a guy who helps me with the general detailing and interior stuff. I had a few lined up so he was there and helping me. Wasn't too bad. Nice job!

Yes a little trick I learned from Chase@ adams. I grab a old dirty job towel (one I don't mind throwing away), I spray the fenders and let sit for just a few and come back and knock it down to a flat surface. It saves from using so much of the spray and leaves the finish perfect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
