    One thing in my favor. A good 1 step polish will make my truck near flawless and then top coat buffing sealant should do me good

    Beadmaker is life. And I appreciate the compliment! Unfortunately I dont know of any pointless dent guys. Wish I did! Have a ton of folks ask for referrals when I tell them I dont do that type of work.

    I'm looking to do a polish on my truck soon. It's a 2017 and it looks like its been run through drive through car wash many a times. I may have to post some pictures to get a better answer but it seems like you got a pretty good correction/polish from a stage 1 polish only, so that's pretty impressive. I'm wondering if I can get away with just doing a polish instead of a correction to get the white paint shining again.

    The terms are all just semantics and interchangeable. You'll find Toyota paint to be soft, aka it's garbage. Love my truck but if you have ever corrected/polished many different types/makes of vehicles, you'll find Toyota paint to be on the low end of the quality scale. This is good news for quick polishes and corrections as a little bit of work can go far. But if you just look at a Toyota wrong, you'll put scratches in it.

    If the paint was as good as the motor this truck would last 50 years
