It's black and it can get filthy. I have bought the car around two months ago. Since then haven't had the chance to drive it much let alone do anything to it (UNI grrrr). Before i start with any mods i decided to give it a complete detail inside and out. All i need now is good weather :) The plan is to do the inside first, engine bay, body work and then the outside. Most of the products are Armor All as I got a lot of them as a present. I see a lot of people value the Meguiars products here. Inside: 1. Get the seats out and plastics including the middle console. 2. Vacuum the **** out of the carpet 3. Condition the carpet (not sure what product, suggestions?) 4. Vacuum, dust, clean, condition the seats 5. Clean all the plastics - armor all protectant 6. Windows (inside) once cleaned on inside the following will go in: - taylor made corolla seat covers - two tone euro look wheelskins leather steering wheel cover - illuminated red door sills - genuine corolla floor mats - dvd/gps double din unit - new speakers all round - window tint Engine: Neighbor does it for round $70 includes entire engine bay top to bottom, wheels arches, and around the wheel area, breaks etc Body work and Spraying: 1. There is a little dint on the door that i'll get fixed up and colour code some plastics. 2. Remove all rear badges besides the toyota logo. Outside: 1. Wash the entire car with a sheepwools mitt and Armor All car wash liquid. 2. Clay bar the car using Armor All clay kit. 3. Polish it using a 'Turtle WAX color cure plus', black. http://www.turtlewax.com.au/classic.htm Now this polish is black, it comes in different colours to suit your car colour. It also comes with a chipstick. I never used such polish so wouldn't mind hearing from anyone that has or has some knowledge and/pr tips bout it. 4. Once polished I'll go over the car and use scratchX 2.0 where necessary. 5. Applying Armor All wax n polish. I don't know if I should be going over it with wax and polish maybe just some good wax? 6. Probably apply two layers of wax. See how i go with weather and time. 7. Condition all the plastics 8. Clean the windows 9. Wheels and tires will be knew so no work there. once cleaned on the outside the following going on: - chrome door handles - short antenna - springs - wheels & tyres I would appreciate any tips, extra methods, anything that could help me out. I will post up some photos as I go just so people can see the outcome with a different product and procedures of detailing their car. Big thanks to the tips posted on this forum about detailing as they've helped me understand a lot about detailing and using different products. Thanks, Serge
