First Detail 2006 Black Tacoma

My first...Sorry no before pics.

QEW - Mothers Clay - QEW - WG Pre Wax Polish Enhancer - WG Deep Gloss Paint Sealant X2 - 24 hours between applications. Polish and Sealant put on with PC. Wiped off by MF. A lot of hard work, but the results were worth it.

Thanks to all. I learned a lot from you guys.

Wow, you are learning well from these boys. Black is a difficult color but you did it justice.

Very nice. You have learned quick. That's black.....a tough color to get right and maintain but you've done it. I can really see the metallics pop in that last pic.
You also have some photography skills too.

Thanks for all the comments. The truck still had the plastic on it when I bought it. The dealer did take it off, but I don't know if they did anything to clean it up.

I didn't see any swirls on the paint.

Yes, it was hard work, but worth it.
