    2006 Toyota 4runner Gunmetal

    This thing was covered with swirls, guy had gone on deployment and his wife had tried hand washin but didn't use a clean mitt. He also had a couple pretty major scratches from when he'd shipped it back here from idaho and the delivery company must have dragged a couple ratchet straps over the hood
    My Process
    Lather up with Autogeek foam gun
    2 Bucket wash method with MEG GC car shampoo
    Clay bar
    PC 7434 w/ 4 in pads
    MEG 105
    MEG 80
    MEG 83
    MEG NXT

    Before






    An attempt at 50/50 on the hood


    HERE's a Before and After of the Hood



    Final Product





    Total process took me about 5 hours

    looks great! 4runners to me don't seem to have the most flattering color choices but I like the dark gray. you def brought the best back out of it.

    after doing this one i do believe that i want to get a rotary. It was a lot of work to get rid of those scratches. I am looking at the makita but a lot of people say that the flex is the way to go...I'm gonna look at them for little while.

    Great job! I have a '04 4runner and it does take a while with a PC. Did you have trouble with the roof, the indentions in it?
