This was a Calif car that has an unusual color. Never did this color before and it reminds me of the Mystic Mustang Cobra. Changes colors a lot.

Light compounding for some very light washing scratches, then polishing with 3M Glaze.

I used 2 last steps: Pinnacle Souveran for depth and the improved formula DP Surface Shield. The DP was in my goodie kit from Detail Fest and I thought it would be a good idea to try it...no disappointments at all. The finish is extremely smooth and error-free.

Here's some finished shots. Kudo's to the dealer's son for taking the "artistic" ones...I'm a hack at photography!

Inside the shop on the lift. The new owner wanted a set of genuine M wheels, so that's why there are 2 different sets on the car.

Dealer's son took these with my camera...that youngster is talented to be sure
