2017 Toyota Tacoma - A Miracle Detailing - Cquartz Professional

There was some type of funk all over the paint (hood, roof, etc.)
He stated to me "It was parked under a tree for a few years."
It had a look like oxidized paint, but I was not sure what it was.
After a deep wash/cleaning and decontamination, it was still there.
A light polishing and it cleared right up. Something was on the paint.

The paint color was unusual - It is called Quicksand.

After trying a few different pad/products combinations
A two-step process pad/compound/polishing worked great.
NOTE: Every paint is different - Always test first.

Correction:
Machine: Rupes 21 with a 5" backing plate.

Pads: RUPES Yellow Fine Foam Pad - 5"

Polishing:
Machine: Rupes 15 with a 5" backing plate.
Compounds: Scholl Concepts S30+ Nano Compound

Whatever the funk was that was all over the paint came off with a light polishing.

I wasn't too sure about the paint color at first but once it cleaned up and sparkled it looked pretty kewl.

This had been parked under trees for a while...but it turned out nice in the end.

Nice work! Turned out well, especially for having had years of tree funk on it.
