2006 Toyota 4runner Gunmetal

[joholste]

This thing was covered with swirls, guy had gone on deployment and his wife had tried hand washin but didn't use a clean mitt. He also had a couple pretty major scratches from when he'd shipped it back here from idaho and the delivery company must have dragged a couple ratchet straps over the hood

looks great! 4runners to me don't seem to have the most flattering color choices but I like the dark gray. you def brought the best back out of it.

Looks great, you did a wonderful job!

 

[joholste]

after doing this one i do believe that i want to get a rotary. It was a lot of work to get rid of those scratches. I am looking at the makita but a lot of people say that the flex is the way to go...I'm gonna look at them for little while.

Great job! I have a '04 4runner and it does take a while with a PC. Did you have trouble with the roof, the indentions in it?

 

[joholste]

yeah the roof was not easy at all.
