My first...Sorry no before pics.

QEW - Mothers Clay - QEW - WG Pre Wax Polish Enhancer - WG Deep Gloss Paint Sealant X2 - 24 hours between applications. Polish and Sealant put on with PC. Wiped off by MF. A lot of hard work, but the results were worth it.

Thanks to all. I learned a lot from you guys.

Wow, you are learning well from these boys. Black is a difficult color but you did it justice.
 
Very nice. You have learned quick. That's black.....a tough color to get right and maintain but you've done it. I can really see the metallics pop in that last pic.
You also have some photography skills too.
 
Your right, "results were worth it". Outstanding Job! And would you just look at the metallics pop.:cheers:
 
very nice ..it is hard work but i'm sure your proud of the end results.. you definately showed what a great finish WG products can produce..:awesome:
 
Wow that's gorgeous! You didn't need to do any swirl removal?
 
Thanks for all the comments. The truck still had the plastic on it when I bought it. The dealer did take it off, but I don't know if they did anything to clean it up.

I didn't see any swirls on the paint.

Yes, it was hard work, but worth it.

oh , so you just bought this truck?
 
DrMike,
No swirl removal. Just polish and seal. I did purchase the WG Spritz Sealant to use after each wash.
 
Itoman, I spent two days, about 4 hours each day - tough getting old.

DrMike, The truck is 6 months old.
 
It's nice you didn't have to do any polishing with the PC, that definitely saved you a lot of time!

Excellent results, very nice!
 
Wonderful job!
Black is a pain in the butt to maintain but it looks amazing with it's properly taken care of.
Looks like your off to a great start............Keep up the good work!
 
Florida Native, Thanks for the compliment. It measn a lot coming from you. I have seen some of your work, and the results are fantastic. At least I had a pretty clean canvas to work with.

Xterra, Thanks, I didn't know doing a proper detail on a car would be so hard. Like I said earlier, it's tough getting old.
 
I swear to never buy me a black car again, but when you look at results like this Toyota!!! i think i will, nothing looks as good as a newly detailed black car (except my red one:p:D ;) )

Another cool car, that we will never see in Norway
 
i hate to bring up an old thread, but i would really like to see the pics. i have a black tacoma that i'm getting ready to do a full detail on and would like to see some pics of what the paint is capable of. the avatar pics look insane!
