Handz Detailed: 2011 Mustang GT Chicane Tribute Showcar

I woke up Thursday morning to a phone call from Greg@Racers Edge Tuning. The shop had asked for a quote on detailing. I asked what kind of car and the response I got was "A Coyote Mustang Showcar"...... I told them I would have to drive over and see the car to give a quote.



I Arrive at RET to inspect the car and I see this custom painted car that was covered in dust and dirt. I looked over the car, wrote down my estimate, and Called the owner to talk over the options since the car was getting work done at RET (custom tuning). The 2011 Mustang GT was in need of a deep down cleaning to perfection.



After talking to the owner, we agreed on going on the car with a 1 step polish to remove any light swirls that were on the car and brighten up the paintwork. The car was going to a Photoshoot for a magazine and a car show on sunday so my time with the car was limited. We decided on a game plan and started the action. The owner requested that the car was washed and prepped using a waterless system so I planned accordingly.



The car arrived friday at noon and was picked up saturday night... This job took much longer than expected.



This was a fun but exhaust job at the same time. The results were impressive. Enjoy!!!



PS - I tried to get more pics of the claying and polishing but my camera battery died right after the wash.

Very nice work... The car was a tribute for joe who own and operated chicane sport tuning.

He worked for saleen in the early days and he was seen on overhauling and was a great guy and friend...

Sadly he was mudered at the shop on Xmas eve 2010..

OP: Excellent work, and I love how wet the finish is.
