It`s been over 6 months since the Mustang has received a proper polish a detail, so I thought I`d get some pictures for posterity before going into the hot weather.
Due to a large portion of the garage ceiling falling on the car back in October, I did paint corrections back in November. There were no less than 20 defects to attend to, and by the time I was done with that (in late November) I was in no mood to hone and jewel the paint. Until last month.
Prep:
Pretreated with Poorboy`s Bug Squash to loosen road film and bugs, pressure-rinsed.
Waterless/rinseless washed with whatver was in reach.
Clayed with McKees Universal Detailing Clay with HiTemp Clay Lube.
Correction:
Spot corrections with Menzerna 400 on LC Orange and 3.25 microfiber cutting pad.
Griots Fast Correction Cream on Rupes UHS pad.
Polish & Jewel:
Menzerna 2500 and 3800 on LC Green Flats and Black CCS, various sizes.
Wheels:
Pressure-spray then QD to clean.
Gyeon Wet Coat.
LSP:
Gtechniq C2 V3 Liquid Crystal
Polish Angel Presto or CarPro Ech2o for more pop
P21S and Mitchell & King wax here and there
Trim & Tires:
Gyeon Preserve on most hard plastics.
1Z Gummi Pflege Stift on seals and gaskets.
CG VRP on tires
Waxed door jams and Gummi Pfledge Stiff`d trim
These late model Mustang deck lids are hard to keep defect-free. They swirl and scratch if you look at them sternly.
