Detailing black.... looking to take it to the next level.

Re: Detailing black.... looking to take it to the next level.

Well, that's not quite what I meant, if you are wanting to detail the newer Toyota.

Although the older Toyota would be great to practice on, I fell that the rotary is a little extreme if you aren't going to need the power to take out some serious defects. The PC is extremely versatile and easy to use. That would be my first choice.

So, in conclusion, I would get a PC. Try it out for a year or two or three and see what you think of it. When you reach a point when the defects are becoming too serious or you start operating a high volume shop where some vehicles require a rotary, then I would contemplate getting a rotary. Besides, if you do get a rotary, you will still need a PC or something else to apply the waxes.

For the vehicle in question, 07 Tacoma in near mint condition.
1. Gold Class wash via Chenille mitt.
2. Clay.
3. #80 via PC.
4. A pure polish. #7 on a black vehicle is insane!
5. Wax. Since you asked about waxes and had a specific *look* you where going for I will give you my $.02. And remember, a look is nothing more than an opinion. Others including you may have a totally different point of view. That why it's important to find what works for you. Anyway, GC gives a deep classic look. NXT is a little more bling and has a lot of pop. #21 gives me the best of both worlds and is my favorite. #26 gives a very deep, wet, classic look.
It's all in the prep though. If you do a good job prepping the vehicle for LSP then I doubt you will be dissapointed with any of them. Given your request for a "classic black look" I would say #26 is probably what you would be most happy with.
