new to detailing..need advice

[06tacosport]

ok well here's my story...i live in the city with off street parking, the only problem is, is where i park there is a huge mullberry tree covering the whole area, not to mention a whole load of birds, dropping berry juices onto my car for...now i had an suv that suffered some bad stains from the berries and the birds...But i just bought an 06 tacoma and i'd like to maybe protect it ahead of time before springtime comes and the tree blooms...my question is what can i do to maybe shield the paint from these potential threats now before they happen?
also i bought the truck used and there is some stains on the seats and rugs, what product do you recommend to maybe get rid of them?

I would invest in a car cover.

Yeah a car cover in that situation would not be a bad thing.

However, you want to make sure your car is clean before you put it on, even if has just light dust on it. QD it before putting it on.

As for waxes, try NXT 2.0 or #26. But clay the car first of course.

For the interior try Meguiars Quik Out carpet stain remover. Personally I haven't used it, but if it's like their Heavy duty carpet and interior cleaner it would be fantastic.

I would agree with the car cover idea in your situation. Another idea for the interior would be APC, or APC+. Not only is it great on the interior it also gives alot of other options to use on differant areas of your truck. Good luck this spring.
