[QUOTE="Merlinii, post: 16175513, member: 159564"] 2018 Ford Mustang GT - A Miracle Detailing - CQuartz Professional Interesting story on this car... The previous owner only had it 1 year and put 30,000 miles on it. Tons of swirls marks, Hologram - buffer trails, scratches, etc. It was a mess. The new owner brought it to me to see if I could "fix" it. If not, he was planning on doing a complete 5-10 thousand dollar paint job. I did a small test spot on the trunk and lo and behold the paint was metallic! Now on to the technical... [B]Machines:[/B] My weapons of choice are the Rupes Mark II 21 Bigfoot 5"BP and iBrid Nano [B]Compounds/Polishes:[/B] Recently I've been using Megs M110 and M210 for correction and polishing. In this case, M110 with microfiber pads barely made a dent in correction. I had to switch to M101 and the paint now corrected with minimal issues. Although, M101 had some dusting and left a micro-marring fog. M110 did not. Even then, the fogging easily cleared up with a quick two-step polishing process. In short, M101 for correction and M210 with a 5" Rupes Yellow pad for polishing. I followed M210 with Scholl's S30 on a Carpro Gloss pad for brilliance and clarity. [B]Convertible top:[/B] Completely masked off with a plastic drop cloth during the compounding/polishing. Ragg Topp Fabric Cleaner with a flat brush and aerosol spray protectant to seal. [B]Tires:[/B] Coated with OBSSSSD Matte Tire Dressing - for a nice, clean, dark subtle look. [B]Wheels:[/B] Iron-X, followed with Iron-X snow soap & wheel brushes in a Detailing Outlaws bucket. [B]Engine Bay:[/B] Cleaned with Multi-X APC followed with Sonus Trim and Motor Kote This is a favorite of mine. No greasy shine. Just a factory fresh matte finish. [B]LSP:[/B] Cleaned paint with Eraser and applied two thick coats of Cquartz Professional. Now on to the pictures... Please watch in 1080p with sound.
