    Toyota Tundra single stage faded white

    wonder if anyone has tackled the single stage white paint on a 2007-2009 Tundra before. it has various faded/oxidized spots on hood and bed.

    was looking for product/pad combo and what im in for. didnt want to go into the job blind but i will do test spots if i have too

    If it`s the same SS White Toyota uses on all models , I did a corolla that was heavily oxidized with staining and even mold around the badges with just HD Speed and orange LC pads. It brought the paint back to life drastically. I`m sure your choice of compound / polish will do fine if I was able to bring the shine back with just an AIO. The thread with pics is here somewhere.

    Re: Toyota Tundra single stage faded white

    I did a dodge sprinter a couple months ago that was matte white is was oxidized so bad. Got awesome results bringing a ton of gloss back with HD adapt and a green buff n shine pad using my makita. I didn`t necessarily get much correction in terms of swirls but the oxidation cleared up perfectly. I`ll have to see if I can find a picture

    It is your thread, you reference it and then say it "is around here somewhere"?

    IME Toyota Tundras white SS paint can be incredibly easy to polish or incredibly hard.

    Allen is right ,you must do a test spot to find out .

    Relax, i did in fact looked up the thread but it showed an error, so i don`t know if it`s the site or my computer (it used to show with no issues). Simply type "corolla" on the little "search" function this Forum offers, and it will be one of the first few top posts (it has "heavily oxidized" on the title) .
