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.

Those 50/50 shots look awesome. The whole truck cleaned up really well. The owner of that Hilux must have been in disbelief when they saw their "new" truck.

Keep up the great work!
 
Dang brother that looks darn right amazing ! Great work thanks for sharing

Fantastic work my friend! Doesn't even look like the same truck:)
 
Your talents are exceptional. You took it from a sow's ear to a silk purse.
 
Outstanding results, to say the least. That's really impressive to see before and after shots. I love these types of vehicles because the turn-around in appearance is so dramatic.
I would have loved to see the owner's reaction.
 
WOW! I bet the owner never would've thought there was nice shiny paint buried under all those scratches. Talk about a save. Amazing work Aaryn.
 
WOW!

Outstanding work Mate!

That looks a lot like the 'farm trucks' around, but they NEVER even get washed let along 'detailed'.

OMG what an amazing turnaround!
Just truly an amazing job man!
 
You had some work cut out for you there, nice job. Truck definitely got well overdue makeover
 
That is a great looking truck. You are a miracle worker Aaryn.
 
Are you sure it's the same truck?

I see that it is a right hand drive. I didn't realize that you folks drive on the wrong side of the road down there.
 
Fantastic job. The customer may not want to sell it now.
How many hours did you put into it?
 
Dang that is good!
Hope to be like you when I grow up!
