Hey Mystic04,

Since I have the same Terminator as you I guess that I can give you my experience with this Mystichrome paint from Ford. I would say that the clearcoat paint on the Cobra is soft and easily scratched and swirled. when I got my Mystic from a dealer in Penn. they had wiped the car down with some kind of rag and all it did was put scratches in the clearcoat. I got almost all of them out using 3M products and my PC. I got rid of all the swirls in my paint and only a few minor scratches remain that I plan on taking out with a 4" pad. I use the Cal duster all the time and its the only thing I will use on my paint when I am looking just for a quick dust cleaning. anything else like a ww or microfiber towel could put scratches in the paint if you are just dusting. the less friction that touches your paint the better it will be. Good luck with your Mystic

and keeping it detailed.



Later, 04MysticCobra.

Thanks for the invite but I am too far away from that area to hookup for a cruise. I am only about 4 miles from the NY state border near High Point and NJ/NY/PA triangle. I was down that area last month with my Maxima. My friend owns the Dairy Queen in Malvern not that far from rt.202. Have fun with the cruise. I see you over at SVT performance if that username is you over there. I have been with SVT perf since 1999 with my 2000 Lightning, then the 95 Cobra R, the 2003 Redfire Cobra and now the 04 Mystic. talk to you soon.
