Hello team. :xyxthumbs:
Here we have the typical "bush bashed" Kiwi Toyota Hilux in all its glory. As you can see from the pictures, we are fairly tough on vehicles down here & for some strange reason, most of the time I see these in this condition - you guessed it - they're black. I know, this type of work doesn't appeal to every detailer but for me, these are the ones that pay the bills & allow me to spend that "bit" more on quality products. :dblthumb2: So upon arrival this Toyota Hilux was everything I was expecting, fairly grubby on the interior, & a bit rough around the edges on the exterior. The objective here was to do what I could to make it presentable for sale, so by no means a "correction" detail for the paintwork but a bit of work required to make it shine.
Right, enough talking, lets see some pictures -
As it arrived.














Alright then, doesn't look so nice huh. With a good vacuum out, some hot water extraction, machine scrubbing, tornador work & some elbow grease - the interior was cleaned up & refreshed -
Completed interior pictures -









Much nicer. Right, on we go to a couple of 50/50 photos of the paintwork. Tools - Flex 3401, LC Orange Hybrids paired with Megs 101, Rupes Mini, Blue Rupes pads, Megs 101. Followed by CarPro Essence+ on CarPro GlossPads.



And finally, some pictures completed. All in all, pretty happy with the job in total. My client was very impressed, chalk this one up as a success. :xyxthumbs:










Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to have a look.
