Detailed: 2005 Scion tC

[justin30513]

This was #2 of the day. Owned by one of my best friend's girl friend. With only 3k on the odo, a clump of red clay fell off a truck and hit the hood. This plus the usual dealer installed swirls, needed to be removed. This one received the same process as today's Tacoma so I'll keep it simple on the write up. Once again, exterior only.

Wheels, Wells, Tires:
Wheel Brightener 6:1
ZEP Degreaser 4:1
Hyper Dressing 4:1

Wash Cycle:
Panels treated with ZEP degreaser 10:1
Hyper Wash 2oz. per 2.5 gallons

Paint Correction:
Damage on hood wetsanded
#105 via rotary/LC White PAD
#82 via G110 to refine finish
#105 via G110/ LC orange pad for the rest of the vehicle

Paint Protection:
NXT2.0 via G110/LC Red LSP pad

Befores.......

Afters.......

Interesting car to look at. I don't know much about them but what I see in your pictures makes me want to research more.

Paint looks very good in comparison to the other white vehicles in the post.

Thanks.
These are really neat cars. I really liked the interior and that it get's 33mpg and it's an automatic.

The paint seems very durable. Not soft but easily correctable. It helps that the roof is all glass too. Very easy to wash....no weird panels to reach and get in to.

I can't say enough about NXT2.0 though. The gloss is uncomparable in my opinion.

Great job on the exterior Justin! I'm sure your buddy's girl was more than happy. I know what you mean these cars are a breezr to work on. My Mom has a light blue TC and it's always a breeze to detail.

Thanks bro.
I do about 90% uh....95% all SUV's! Something like this seems like a toy and a relief.

Nice work, that paint and wheels looked beat, good job restoring it...

This is by far the nicest car in the Scion line... IMO
