Tundra Detail 65+ pics! - TundraTalk.net

Hi all...

Recently, I completed a detail on a 'work-truck', Tundra.
I saw a lot of talk about detailing here, so I hope it's okay to pop a link to the write-up, as it takes quite some time to upload all the shots.

If I'm not allowed to have a link on this site, my apologies!

I just wanted to share this avenue with y'all, as there seems to be a lot of discussion, interest, & even a bit of confusion pertaining to truck-care.

I didn't go into a whole lot of detail about the 'detail...
I wasn't planning on doing a write-up, initially.
I did take a lot of shots for my own records (which I do a lot).

tundratom · 08-20-2008, 01:01 PM

awesome job -- I might have missed. How did you take the scratches out of the speedometer face? I also have a scratch in my temp/mileage/clock indicator in the center of the dash. Any ideas on taking that scratch out? thx

cadams1224 · 08-20-2008, 05:18 PM

where do you live?

Rob S. · 08-20-2008, 06:11 PM

And I thought I was anal about cleaning my truck. How ever much it was it looks like it was worth every cent.

Toxarch · 08-20-2008, 07:01 PM

Wow, that truck started off like a heavily used ranch truck and came out incredible. Nice job.

CrewMax Tundra · 08-20-2008, 08:01 PM

total props man you do awesome work

gannonfamly · 08-21-2008, 09:38 AM

I read the whole post.....I know...but its my day off. He said it took 50 hrs over 5 days to do that. Something tells me he doesn't charge $10/hr either. I just wish he lived near me.....I think it says he lives in SoCal.

Truly impressive work!!

ybofcan · 08-21-2008, 10:47 AM

I just spent a good 4 hours cleaning my truck. It's Newer, Not nearly as worked, and only a couple minor surface scratches. It doesn't look as clean as this truck does. Amazing Job!!!!
