    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Moved on to polish the 3rd brake light and taillights on my recently purchased 2008 Tacoma. Interior next then detail the engine bay and follow up with polishing the paint and then a coating.

    2008 Toyota Tacoma 410,000 miles and still going strong.

    I hope you're doing a write up of this. With how clean your Miata is, I can't wait to see what the Tacoma looks like.

    Yesterday was cleaning the windshield and rear window, then claying and applying Griots glass sealant. Today was cleaning wheels/tires, applying tire dressing and ceramic wheel sealant.

    Thank you. I used my Griot’s small polisher, pad and M205 and then coated with GTechniq Crystal Serum Light.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Practice run.
    Various polishes and pads.
    3D One
    Sonax Perfect Finish
    Dr. Beasley’s NSP 150 & Z1

    Seven year old Leaf
    Sits outside
    Never detailed or properly washed
    Stained, pitted, scratched, swirled chipped



    Before


    After

    It came out alright.
    Would need a proper two-step, and it’s not worth it.

    Ran out of time.
