Ford GT Paint Correction - Mirror Detailing

[MirrorDetailing]

Another Ford GT I got done. Customer saw the black one I did last month and wanted his done up the same way. This is my dream car down to the exact color combo and mods. Car was not in the worse of shape. Had some minor holograms from the previous detailer and light scratces/swirls across the whole thing.



Process:



Washed w/ Citrous Wash

Wheels w/ CG Diablo Wheel Gel

Clayed w/ Pinn Ultra Poly Clay w/ ONR Lube

Dried with DI Drying Towel & Air Blower

Taped with Meguiars Tape

Buffed w/ SIP via Flex Speed 6 w/ Uber Orange Pad

Buffed w/ Micro Finish via Flex Speed 5 v/ Uber Green

Smaller Areas w/ Microfiber 3" Pads w/ D300 & M105

Smaller Areas w/ Tangerine Spot Pad w/ M205



LSP:

WIndows w/ Stoners

Sealed w/ WGDGPS

Waxed w/ Blackfire Midnight Sun

Tires w/ Nature Shine

Wheels hit w/ V7 Hybrid

Body Wiped down w/ V7 Hybrid



Whipple w/ M205/105 Mixture

Sealed w/ Wheel Guard



What the car looked like when I first got there. Before washing it...

What the paint looked like before under my LED light...

After washing the car...the sun popped over the trees and was able to get some sun shots before...

Once I finished getting the car dry, pulled it into the garage, tapped it up and did some test work to see what process would work best.

Once I got all the buffing done, got the interior done and sealed up the car. Put a heavy coat on the car so it had the whole night to cure before I came back to finish up the rest of the car.

Once I got back the next morning, I finished up all the final things. Did another wipe down on the car, windows, rims/tires, engine bay and cleaned up the whipple and exhuast.



Engine Bay area before...

Whipple was looking a little dull, so did some polishing on it and sealed it up to give it a much better shine.

Once everything was done. I had an hour with the car till the owner got back. So I moved it around the front of his house and got all the pictures I want. lol.

Once I was done getting the basics, I started wasting time getting more fun look pictures. I am not a amazing photograhper so I just got shots that I thought would look cool.

Mike, I'm starting to think you work in the F-GT capital of the world. This makes what number for you?

Thanks. About the door, none. After the first one I did, I have learned that you can scalp yourself in these things.

That was your favorite one? My buddy will be doing a professional shoot on this thing in a few weeks. As for the number, this was my 6th one. Hopefully 7th and 8th will be calling me soon, as I talked with a owner of a Tungstein Grey one this weekend.
