This car is a daily driver and referral from a friend. The lady loves her Mustang and truly it didn't show from the first time I laid eyes on it... The only drawback and dislike is the louvers, everything else can stay... I'm harsh... Wash - Started with a quick degreasing of the engine and rockers + I knocked out the wells/tires/wheels. I then dried the engine with a electric blower and MF's then proceeded to dress. I picked MEGS Hyper dressing via paint gun for this one. After I gave the engine a quick coat I went ahead and coated the fender wells. Next I completed a ONR wash over the whole exterior including touching up the wheels last. I did the entire car in one shot then pressure washed. I then clayed the car with the clean water sitting on the surface of the car. Next I dried the car using a blower and MF's. I don't normally do this, but it was something I've been wanting to try, and actually worked great. Time-Saver?? Probably so if I was in a race Polish - The car didn't have any heavy swirls or scratches, so I filled up the green edge cyclo pads with DG501 and went to town. This brought out a great shine and will give it more protection then say a hand wax of any kind. LSP - OOpps I just put my foot in my mouth. Thanks to a great trade with D2G - M. Champion I recieved a tub of Lusso Oro and so this was my time to put it to the test. It went on the car like Pinnacle Sov and the look actually didn't darken the paint like Pinnacle Sov, but made it GLOW! Great product for the most part! Would I purchase it again..... Maybe Dressings - All rubber was dressed with MEGS Hyper dressing via spray bottle / soft wheel brush. Glass - My new favorite glass cleaner ZEP Streak-Free was used and has not let me down. Contains ammonia, but this car didn't have any tint, so it was appropriate. Interior - Recieved a deep vacuum and quick dusting of all surfaces. Vinyl was treated with AIM Leather and Vinyl Treatment via MF applicator. BEFORES AFTERS
Louvers can stay, she needs to ditch those Cobra R rims and throw the stock mach 1 rims back on her nice job on the detail though
Looks great. I really need to try out some of the Megs Hyper dressing as you get great results with it. Any paticular reason you went with a ONR wash instead of a foam cannon wash?
Cause he's lazy!!! haha LOL Eric im glad you got good use outta the Lusso Oro.... the couple times I used it was great show. Man that engine bay is slicker than anything else I've ever seen!!! awesome job BTW, is that hummer gonna be sitting there much longer??:catfight:
Well no particular reason. The car wasn't that dirty, plus I wanted to try the rinse method I explained in the process. Thanks for the compliment bro! Appreciate that D2G! The lusso was actually really good! That MEGS puts CD-2 acrylic's finish on the back burner when sprayed through a paint gun Oh and the HUMMER IS GONE! I agree the cobra R's belong on something other than this particular themed Mustang. Thanks for the comp.
Great work, looks fantastic! I also enjoy using Lusso Oro, however, it doesn't seem to last very long on the details that I've used it on. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but input would be appreciated.
Paint looks great! That engine is a little too shiney for me... looks like it'd collect alot of dust. Great job!!!
