2005 Toyota 4 Runner

This is a detail of my 2005 Toyota 4 Runner. Process was over a 2 day period.

Total Time: Approx 7 hours

Day 1:

Wash with NXT soap via two bucket method
Clay with Ultima Clay Foam and Ultima Clay Lube
Interior dressed with Sonus Total Eclispse
Glass cleaned with NXT Glass Cleaner
Wheels dressed with Megs Insane Tire Shine

Day 2:

Polish with Optimum Poli-Seal via PC and Sonus Green Pad
LSP Poorboys EX-P via PC and LC black pad
Wheels treated with Klasse AIO
Engine dressed with Stoners Trim Shine
Wheel wells dressed with Street Appeal Tire Shine

My intention was to top it all with Nattys regular but of course I ended up grabbing the Poorboys wheel sealant jar instead of the Natty's when I packed my stuff. Oh well. Next wash it gets topped.

Excellent work. Those can be tough to detail.
