Toyota Hilux

Another farm vehicle This one actually belongs to the guy whose Landrover Disco I did before he traded in for this.




Soooo..it was dirty ...very dirty, so bad in fact that the side steps were stained from the mud. I was told not too bother with them as they would just get dirty again. After a foamdown with Megs GC shampoo mixed with APC and a wash the paint showed early signs of oxidation(visible on the bonnet) and just an overly dull look to it. Not too many RIDs and what was there were very small. The bonnet was the worst of all the panels as this showed the worst signs of oxidation and paint scoring from the bonnet protector that is fitted(removed for polishing).






After claying the car correction was done with Menz SIP and LC Orange pad. It took a few passes until I got the desired finish and removed all signs of the oxidation. LSP was CG Extreme TC Sealant....again, for two coats(got my Jetseal to play with now ). Trim was treated to my last dribble of 303 Aerospace and Megs GC trim detailer. Tyres also got the Trim detailer as it dries and does not allow dirt to stick to it. It doesn't leave the darkest of finishes on the tyres but I though it was a better option for the dirt road he travels.









The nice thing is, I did this about 2 month ago and it still looks good. Nice to see even a farmer appreciates the work.
