    The Supersonic looks real good in the Sunlight. However in the shade it looks like a common red.

    I just ceramic coated my new truck(3TY built 04/25) and therefore discovered any perfections in the paint. I must say that I'm super happy with the paint on this truck. It's better than the MGM on my previous '23 TRD OR.

    Just thought I'd share some encouragement. :)

    What ceramic product/products did you use? I prefer Gtechnic CSL topped with ExoV5. Weekly washes with Koch Chemie GSF and a coat of P&S Beadmaker.

    I’d be curious if the paint quality varies between the 3TM (Baja) and 3TY (Guanajuato) plant locations. For the 4th gen’s it seems like only manuals are coming from 3TY…

    Don't laugh...... Turtlewax Hybrid Solutions. I've done one coat and plan to do the 2nd coat today or tomorrow(been in garage till complete). The closest thing I've used to a true ceramic is NextGen. The Turtlewax HS works pretty good but I'm interested in something that will last longer.... but keep things simple.

    The prep process is kind of a pain with professional ceramics, but they last a year or two. Then when you wash everything just falls off (nothing sticks) and you can dry the whole truck with a leaf blower in a few minutes. I highly recommended it.
