I agree with comments above. Maybe I should try a better sealant/coating...something that I can buff out without taking the chance on damaging paint. I also have considered cutting off the exhaust...
Here we go an old post that I made five years ago. I purchased a fourth white Tacoma in 2018. My wife still has her 2015 Tacoma. In the five years since my 2016 post, I still have not found a...
Not on this Tacoma. Minor dust nibs can be leveled with very careful wet sanding. As a matter of fact, I have a very small paint flaw were a dust nib was wet sanded level at the factory. (Yes, I...
Dust nibs under the paint. Most likely from the factory and quite likely under both the base coat and clear coat. Don't mess with them. My white Tacoma has about a half dozen of them but most...
To the OP: Saw your post on the Tacoma forum. I too have a Tacoma (a 2018). My wife has had five of them. I don't know how many times I have used a DA polisher on these trucks. Mostly just with a...
Just used the coin-op to get the big stuff off my Tacoma. Need to finish up with ONR Wash and Shine (not Wash and Wax). Will Meg's Ultimate Liquid Wax work OK with this no rinse wash or should I...
The stains definitely were calcium/lime deposits from the parking gargage. They were not heavily crusted and were about the thickness of a layer of paint. A 100% white vinegar solution worked...no...
A little change in direction to the post. I'll probably not use the CLR and will stick with various solutions of vinegar. I have a bunch of stuff packed for this little detailing venture...just in...
For what it's worth. Today I showed the pics of my daughter's car to a friend of mine who own a pro-detail shop. He immediately recognized that indeed this was calcium/lime crud from a parking...
Thanks so much. I'll be in Minneapolis over Easter and will see what I can do. It gives me a chance to be a "dad" again. Over the years I have spent many hours on her vehicles...and she knows that...
Do you think that the ONR Mineral Deposit Remover is really strong enough to cut this crud? I had thought about using a white vinegar solution to see what effect it had. White vinegar...
Thanks for taking a look at the "mess" and offering a suggestion for fixing it. It do have a variety of compounds, polishes and pads for a pc. I could haul up my rotary but that probably...
Pics of the damage. It looks worse than I thought. My daughter said that with some hard rubbing (microfiber cloth) using bug and tar remover she was able to remove some of it. Could it actually be...
My daughter called and asked how to remove a bunch of pigeon droppings on her Subaru. I suggested that she try the usual Autogeek recommendations. They didn't work. She also tried some bug and tar...
