Just Washed n Waxed her up...

Just got done doing a little detail on my taco... washed and waxed it. Shes got her shine back. How often should you wax your vehicle? This is a 2008 I just bought used so not sure when it was done last....

What kind of wax do you use?? I used the liquid turtle wax and it worked good... no white residue and went on and came off smooth....

 

Also, do you think I should de badge it?? Im really thinking it would look a lot cleaner?? Any feedback?? Also what do you use to get the residue off??

 

Yes, de-badge for sure. Truck looks

 

3M makes a product to get all the left over residue off or another one is called "goo gone" they both work good.

 

I would say you should wax your truck at least a few times a year. I have a white Tacoma and have yet to wax it since I bought it brand new in 2006. It sits in the garage 80% of the time so I dont worry about it to much. But Black vehicles look awesome after a nice wash-n-wax!!! I'm sure that Turtle Wax you used should do just fine.

But I think you should def debadge your truck!! That or paint the badges black but since your truck is already black, I think it would look the cleanest if it was just debadged. I used goo gone to get rid of the residue when I first took them off and it worked just fine.

 

Adams detailing products work great.

 

Looks good. I need to wax mine haha.

 

Whats the for?

 

Haha I'm just amazed!

 

Lol, at which part are you amazed at though?!?!

 

Probably that its been 4 years! There is definitely no protection left on that paint, lol. Wax that thing man!

 

oh, and yes. Definitely debadge it. I use 3m General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner/Remover.

 

Exactly!

 

I know!!! I dont know why I havent waxed it in the past?!?! I guess since its always in the garage I never really thought about it. I'll wax it here soon though. There, happy?!?!

 

Definitely debadge it. Alcohol or goo gone will remove the residue.

 

for sure.drink plenty of alcohol and apply goo gone,and if it doesnt come off ,you want even care.

 

Well.... the same day as this post I took yallz dvice and debadged it and it looks so much better!! Ill try n post a pic up today.... thnx guys!!

 

debadge and your truck looks nice BUT would look allot nicer with some Toyo M/T's. That's just my .2 cents!!
