Thanks! I decided I wanted to try detailing my car this weekend, and I went all-out.
The Steps:
Watch Junkman2000's videos on Youtube!
Full Pressure-wash
Soapy Mitt Wash
Chemical Guys Clay Bar
Chemical Guys V36 applied with Porter Cable 7424XP DA Polisher/Orange Pad
Chemical Guys V38 also applied with DA Polisher/Red Pad
Meguiar's Sealant 2.0 #21 also applied with DA Polisher/Red Pad
Took me 6 hours straight yesterday, and 4.5 hours today to finish up! But it was well worth it!
Tips:
Work in the shade, in a garage, or when it is cool out.
Wait for a calm day if possible. (Not in Kansas)
Some of these products smell like bubblegum or raspberries. So don't skip lunch...
The Results:

The blemishes were from the previous owner, just don't ask how that blue streak got on there.

After:
The phone camera can't do the 4Runner enough justice. The paint before was all cloudy and had spider-web swirls all over. Not to mention a few of the scuffs and scratches. Now they're all gone and replaced with a beautiful shine! And new stickers!
