Well, today I started my friends 99 Mustang Cobra. I have to finish the car tomorrow because I ran out of time today and did not want to rush the rest. This car has been through countless brush car-washes and definetly needed some TLC. When the halogen lights came out, I wanted to cry :cry: I only have pics of the driver side because I still have to finish the rest, my process was:



Clay w/ Blackfire Polyclay

Cut w/ Optimum Hyper compound w/ LC yellow cutting pad via rotory@1500rpm

Polish w/ Menzerna 106FF w/ green german polishing pad via rotory@1300rpm

Glaze w/ Red Moose Glaze w/ LC blue finishing pad via PC speed 4

Werkstatt Prime via PC w/ LC blue finishing pad speed 3.5

Werkstatt AJ trigger x2

Also, a few coats of FK#425 here and there to remove stubborn compound/polish



Here are the befores:

I will post some more pics of the whole car once I finish it tomorrow. It is supposed to rain here for like the next five days, but I will at least be able to snap a few pics in my garage. As soon as we get some sunny weather, I will have him bring the snake back out bud ;)
 
Very nice, I'm a fan of this detail... :bigups



How does AJ-T remove from Black paint for you?



I'm having a little bit of trouble with CJ on my Black Cobra.
 
The AJ trigger has been an absolute pleasure to use. Even on the black, it wipes off with tremendous ease. I am having the owner of the black Cobra bringing his car back to me in a week to put a layer of the CJ over the AJ trigger. I just wanted to let the AJ cure well before I put any type of carnuba over it.
 
Great job!!!



I'm not much into glazes so pardon if this question is ignorant, but does not prime remove any of the RMG?

That is what I prefer to do. I ask a customer to come back for some CJ after AJ.



O4cobra, How much of the CJ are you using. As with most products a little is a lot.
