This was the same owner as the Supercharged Yukon I posted a while ago. I think he really likes superchargers. lol He also has a new GTO, but thats just tuboed. lol



This Tacoma is a commuter (about 500miles a week) through areas with a lot of bugs and by a garbage dump that usually has garbage on the road (made for some nasty wheel wells and front). It is lifted a couple of inches and has a TRD supercharger. It was a full exterior detail and under the hood clean up of a busted power steering. The worst part of the detail was the fact that I have a cold, and detailing when your sick, sucks! But I didn't want to cancel because of it.



Process:

Engine Compartment:

Cover electricals with foil

Spray down engine and under side of hood with Simple Green (4:1)

Scrub with brush, use old wash mitt on underside of hood.

Rinse with water

Repeat again

Run engine to dry

Dress with CGs Liquid Extreme Shine

Sealed under hood and other painted parts with OCW



Paint:

Wash with NXT

Clay like crazy

Polish with CGs Lazer Buff

Seal with CGs Extreme Top Coat Sealant (super slick and very easy to remove)



Clean door jambs

Seal with OCW



BnB on tires

303 on handles and rear bumper top

Fender flares with CGs Liquid Extreme Shine



I wasn't able to get any good after shots in any kinda sun light, because its dark by 4:30pm now. :furious:

Looks great. I think that halogen could have been in a better spot though ;)

Ya, lol, I was snapping away and not really thinking about that because the owner showed up quicker than I thought. lol Still wish the sun stayed longer though. :(
 
BTW guess who I got a pm from.. papi_jay! Says his computer was down and he will be sending the IW ASAP. I hope so.

I'm glad to hear that. I should be getting my sample of IW in a couple days. :)
