Menzerna Polishing Compounds of Germany has set new standards for workability, uniformity, performance, and quality. Why else would Mercedes Benz use Menzerna polishes to perfect the finishes on their brand new vehicles?

2007 Mustang (daily driver)

My dad and I decided to work on my mom's Mustang when she was at work. We started with DP All exterior cleaner on the rims (diluted 1:1), then hit all the road tar (took it off like nothing). After that, we washed with Meg's Gold Class, followed up with Meg's clay bar. Washed again, then hit it with PB EX-P Sealant. We're currently waiting for it to cure, so we'll have to throw on a coat or two of PB Natty's Blue tomorrow. Sadly we don't have a PC, so the micro-marring is stuck there until we purchase one.

Before:





Dad taking care of the rims!


AFTER:








More and better quality pics to come tomorrow afternoon/evening!

Re: 2007 Mustang (daily driver)

I don't think the Natty's Blue really got the metal flake in the paint to pop as well as I wanted, but the paint still looks freaking insanely nice. The following are all post-wax.







Right there in the bottom of the last pic, that little white spot is the moon, hahaha, the reflection was a lot clearer than the camera made it look.

Re: 2007 Mustang (daily driver)

just a hint .... till you get a machine consider using a glaze to temporarily hide/fill those swirls you discussed. Several are even now sealant compatible. Paint cleansers (Pinnacle, P21S) also work prior to a carnauba wax.
