Well, it was about time for a little paint care. Had a few swirls I wanted to remove so out came the PC and supplies.

Figured I would share some pics.

Products used: SSR1, Red Moose Machine Glaze, Clearkote Carnauba Moose Wax.

During the SSR1

Nicest cobra i have ever seen. Amazing.
Thanks man. :beer:

yeah that car is clean! nice work, although it looks like it didn't need much work anyways.
It didn't need a whole lot. You are correct. Just some maintainence, that's all.

Sweet. Wish mine looked that good. Good work man
Just work at it. You can do it.

They are very forgiving and easy to use, you will see.

OK. Sounds good.

nice job man, how u liking the red moose, i used it all the time on my dsg mach 1 and loved it,
I like the way the RMMG works. It is easy to use and gives a nice wet look.

I believe you. That's at least the time I spend on mine if not more. But I only go over the entire car like this once a year so it's not so bad. Winter time is perfect so it will be ready for Spring time. :burnout:

looks dam good as always man!
Thanks. :beer:

It's almost too clean, drive it and enjoy it. Car can't go to the grave with you.

On a side note my favorite cobra on this site, and your attention to detail is outstanding.

You have the best looking car on the forums...I have used my PC probably 10 times between various cars and have still never had results like that...using the same products, too. Any tips?

LOL. Thanks. I have almost 18,000 miles on it.

your sick in the head you have the nicest paint on a cobra on this site!
LOL. I would not go that far. There are many cars on this site with great paint. Just look in here and you will find some of them.

kevin, ever feel like that car owns you? LOL!!!!
LOL. Not really. I enjoy this so I can't really complain.

I think for a while I will keep these, until I come up with a new design. Thanks. :beer:

Thanks. This time I used a white pad with the SSR1, because I didn't need much correction. You really need to judge the condition of your paint to choose the pad/compound needed. A good rule of thumb is to start light and get more agressive if needed.


What can anyone say, simply beautiful Kevin..:thumbsup:
Thanks Noel. :beer:

I don't think it's the products as much as it is that you are using them as they are designed to. I have used rotaries for years so a PC is much more tame than that. Not sure why you are not acheiving the same results.

Wow, simply the nicest cobra i've ever seen.....
Thank you. :beer:
