Toyota Tundra Correction and DP paint coating

[nezff]

Detailed a Toyota Tundra for a customer. His third time back. He told me up front that he had taken it hunting, so I had my work cut out for me. This truck never sees dirt or travels off road, So you can imagine my surprise when I saw the truck in its before state.

Mud stains, swirls, scratches, etc... were definitely a issue.

Full wash, then decon with nanoskin fine clay sponge. Wheels, tires, and wheel wells cleaned and dressed. Full 2 step polish session with Megs 5 inch cutting disc and followed by Megs M205. Coated with DP paint coating. Interior needed a full cleaning also. Seats were coated with Cquartz and carpets with 303 fabric guard.

(Background on myself: Ive been detailing vehicles since I was about 18 years old. Im 37 now. I quit in my early 20s when I became a full time firefighter. I always stayed up on the latest and greatest technologies of detailing. I always was known in my community of roughly 60,000 people, "that guys that keeps his ride clean even when it rained". I started back detailing on the side about 1 year ago. I did 11 vehicles by myself in one month while on vacation from the FD, I mean full on details (4-8 or more hours) Ive currently completed some major and minor details in the last year totaling 60 cars trucks/SUVs/boats)

I'm either having déjà vu or you did a two step polish on that same truck a couple months ago.
Regardless, it looks great.

Nice work! Did you use the DP Prep Polish prior to applying the coating? If so, did you do any type of wipe down between the polish prep and actual coating steps? I have some myself and was planning on using it in the coming weeks and the product page makes is sound like there is no need for a wipe down.

No prep polish because I didn't have any. I use Carpro Eraser in between polish and coating application. Been using Eraser for a while now. Easy to use and evaporates quickly.

Again, amazing job buddy beautiful truck!

Looks great nice work!

thanks.

Wow! That black paint looks like glass!!

I read that you've done this customers truck before, did you use any kind of coating in the previous job you did? If so what did you use and how did it hold up?

The previous two times if I remember right were wash and wax. The first time he wanted the glass polished. This was the first customer to receive the DP paint coating when I started offering it. I've done three to four vehicles with it and still above half full.
