96' Mystic Cobra Detail

[WiSh4SvTs]

I just recently did my first detail job on my Mystic!
I used my Porter Cable 7424xp with Megs 105, 205! Orange pad with the 105 and followed that up with 205 on a white pad. And sealed it all with Megs 21 sealant.
Before and after pictures proved to be difficult as the color change was making it difficult to capture alot of the defects. So heres what i got....

Before

What a beautiful car and color, I have never been a fan of Mustangs but yours is pretty special. It is amazing how a little bit of polishing can make a huge difference, the mystic paint looks great!

The color change of the paint, does make it hard to see the clarity in the pics. But that car looks good, that's my favorite year Cobra.

Keep up the good work

Nice cobra and nice detail!

[Jenn1270]

That is one fine car....great work

Very nice Mystic and detail, the 50/50 shot shows how much more clarity the paint has. Good thing that paint hide swirls.

Good job. Those are some bad scratches on the bumper. You've got some left out stains on your windows..hehehe.

Thanks alot everyone! The compliments make it worthwhile.

Lol, yeah I forgot to wipe all my windows down, I need to buy some good window cleaner. Any suggestions?

And more than anything, Thanks to this great site! All the info, know-how, and products came from AG.net. My cars savior!

I just use a regular ammonia-free cleaner. If i need to fix some scratches, i just reach for 105/205. The only scratches left on my windows are because of the tint. If it weren't too hot and humid where i live, i would've taken those out a long time ago..lol. But if you need a repellant, i've read good things about Stoners. Good luck.

Hey man, your car looks AMAZING now! That paint is so SICK! Anyway, a good suggestion ESPECIALLY for the smell of it and that you mix it 10:1 is Meguiar's Glass Cleaner Concentrate. It LITERALLY smells like candy! I love using it. Helps with odors inside of the car too.
