3rd Gen White Tacomas - Post them up!

Have you tried to decontaminate your paint? It's usually needed right off the delivery truck to some extent.

 

it’s definitely bug poop not rust, think more specificity, it’s bee poop from what I’ve found some people say it’s a mix of pollen and nectar.

Just wasn’t sure if someone had found something to remove it easier or something to keep it sticking to the paint

 

I've had good luck with the turtle wax bug and tar remover for heavy stuff I don't want to get in my clay bar. Once you get it clean I use opti seal as a drying aid and sealant. It works well and one bottle lasts forever.

Mind explaining what you mean?

 

Well paint contamination is just 'stuff' stuck to the paint that you can't necessarily see. Plastic bag test works well to check. During shipment to the dealer the truck will have some film on it but it's not great at staying together and usually leaves some residue on the truck too.

If you're getting ceramic coating or ppf tell the dealer to leave the shipping film on and take it straight to the shop doing the work.

Bought it last night!! Don’t have better pics as we are living in a fire evacuation warning area and the nearest dirt roads to me are either on fire or have completely burned.

 

Many more mods to come hopefully!

 

Congrats!

 

We were able to get out and drive around a bit. Saw the fire from a different perspective today. For the last week and 5 days we’ve been surrounded by smoke with the worst AQI being 924

She's about two weeks old. All I've done is put on K02s, bed cover, and remove mudflaps/airdam.

 

Looks great! Also looks like you have red interior. You get them to throw that 2022 tundra styling in there??

 

that's a nice touch. super clean.

 

Manual or automatic?

 

I was actually hesitant with the red, but it looks great and isn't obnoxious.

Auto

 

oh wow, I just learned something...didn't know you could get red interior - looks fantastic and should be offered with other trims.

 

I was hoping to find someone else with a manual white access cab. How about a shot of the interior?
