hello peeps i was bored on friday and spent the day polishing my gf's 2012 Toyota Tacoma, with some Menz SF4000 on my flex 3401 with buff n shine green polishing pad, IPA wipe down and used my new LSP on it... Celeste Detagglio. Only took after shots of it not before or during sorry. I also did the trim with some CG VRP dressing

If there's a polish that nearly does it all it would be Menzerna's SF4000.

Menzerna's SF4000 has a decent cut to it but it finishes beautifully leaving a brilliant shine behind.

That white Tacoma looks gorgeous! http://www.detailcity.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Looks great psynx! That's as glossy as white can be. SF4500 seems to be a great finishing polish.

Man my girl is about to buy a used car and I already know im going to be having to take the swirls out! LOL but you gotta flex so you were probably out with her in the garage and finished up the same afternoon. Damn what a good job. Its funny how I decided to share my paint obsession with her, now she knows what a swirl is and she's definitely not having it! Haha my problem is i gotta PC, so shell have to send it to my house for a couple days! Maaan what did i get myself into!? Lol

i only used SF4000 and skipped 4500, still getting used to DAT products. Ive used SMAT products for the most of my times detailing :buffing: thank you for the kind words :xyxthumbs:

same here, when we go out to eat or to the mall she looks at the expensive cars and criticizes the swirls and holograms on them lol. i opened up pandora's box!!!! it took me about 6 hours to do her truck with a 1 hour lunch break lol

That is some shiny white paint!

hmmmm it does sorta make it stand out more than my other LSP's, but until i use it on my AP2 then, then i can make a better judgement. her truck is always dirty so any wash and polish is an improvement lol

I love a nice reflective black, but white trucks hold a very special place in my heart. Beautiful work!
