    108k Miles; 9 years old and still looking awesome!

    So the first of two details for this weekend was thanks to my friend Ben from a local racing group we belong to who has a Mustang Family. His 5.0 and his father in laws V6 convertible.

    This beautiful red summertime fun car is a 2013 Mustang Convertible finished in Candy Red Metallic has been in service for nearly 10yrs and has just over 108k miles on it. A daily driver that's enjoyed year-round and still loved. It just needed some "love" to look it's best again.

    The approach here was simple, give it a good solid 1-step paint correction (nearly perfect in this case) and top it with the most hydrophobic ceramic coating I have (GYEON's Syncro EVO Kit). Also in there was a goal to restore as much of the trim and seals and plastics as possible. Mission accomplished all around. The car is like new again and is ready for summer.

    Many thanks to Ben and his FIL for their continued trust in my work!



    Polished with Flex XCE and 3401 polishers wearing orange L.C. Flat Pads using GYEON's Primer. Trim restored with Solution Finish and topped with GYEON Mohs.

    Wow! Beautiful work and stunning finish for 109k on the clock.

    You piqued my interest on Gyeon Primer too!
