So, this is the Toyota I bought not so long ago:

Bought a car

I have now started the detailing, so I thought it was smart making a thread in Show and shine section

The detailing is going slow, because of the bad weather we have her now But today I did the interior, it came out good. Its some paint on the seats, that I can`t get out. (The car was used by painters)

This thread will be updatet every time I do something on the car!

Are you sure that you didn't paint that mirror? :P

BTW: Have you tried butter on the "painted seats?" That and a steam cleaner could get it out.
