Winter Clean up - 2003 Toyota Sienna (56k beware)

[LucentTeg]

Hello all



This is my moms mini van, I was home from school this weekend and I decided to give it a clean. My car is in storage for the winter because I just can`t bare to see it in such a poor state. I am happy how this turned out considering I decided to skip the polish and wait until the weather really gets nice to bother with that.



Process:

Wash (Car Brite Blue Liquid)

Clay (Meguire`s Quick Clay, Blue Liquid as lube)

Wash car once again

Wax with NXT using supplied applicator

Mothers B2B on the lower trim

Meguire`s Hot Sine on tires

All products removed with microfiber

There is a lack of sun, I tried my best though

Looks great. It`s pretty crazy seeing such a clean car out there in the slushy snow.

Thanks, I cleaned this up and the day after it was pouring rain. Its still worth it to get a good coat of wax on the paint for winter though.

I guess no one likes vans? I don`t either personally but I had the detail bug.

I do - my girlfriend drives one as well.



Looks very shiny and glossy on my monitor. Excellent job.



NXT is an awesome 1 step product.

I did use clay, mequires quick clay but I held off on the polish until the really nice weather comes around. This clean up was basically to get some wax on the paint.

looks good. I am sure your mom was happy. My mom told me she was going cruising around Sunday after I detailed hers on Saturday... it was amusing :)
