      On a side note, my friend had an XTerra just like it - same year, exterior color, and interior. His looked really good for the age, but not this good. Too funny.

      Thanks Colin.

      I have found that when using cleaner waxes such as M06, M66, M20, etc that you have to actually work them in and not just spread them across the surface.

      I spent about an hour working M06 into the paint with my PC and several W8207 pads.

      Normally I use M66, but I want to use up my last bottle of M06.

      I use Super Degreaser at 10:1 on tires, 4:1 on very dirty tires.

      I use APC at 10:1 on wheels, tires, and wells. I use it at about 7:1 on interiors.

        I used M06 on an '06 Speedway Blue Tacoma DoubleCab a few days ago. It certainly took me a lot longer than an hour to work it in.

        Maybe I'm just way too slow. Yeah, I think that's it.

        A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

          Very nice Colin. The Xterra does not have as much paint as that Tacoma. You got all that plastic trim on those Xterras.

          Post a writeup if you have some free time.

              The paint looks great. How do you apply your 70/30 #135 - Synthetic Spray Detailer and Ultimate Quik Wax mix. Do you just spray it on and wipe if off, or do you let it dry to a haze, and do you do one panel at a time..or spay the whole vehicle then come back and wipe off?

                I use it like a mist and wipe product. Spray on and wipe off.
