07stanggt Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Here are some pics of a 2001 Mustang Cobra I just detailed. This was in terrible shape as you can see from the before pics, but the after pics are well....And yes it's all Adams. And a little techinque and TLC from me as well. :pc7424: Captain Slow, jimboman, scootertrash19 and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtnbiker326 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Did you use microfiber and a flex to get those scratches out or sandpaper and then microfiber? 07stanggt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07stanggt Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 No Flex here. PC only.No sandpaper. Strip wash, claybared,3 step paint correction (SSR was a must), Brilliant Glaze, then Buttery wax. I really do miss the SSR. There were areas that a 2 step was not going to take out, and not to have SSR would have not got the results I wanted. I have 4 bottles of SSR and 6 green pads and until I can find a product out there which has the cut capability of the SSR, I am stickin with it. Very dusty though, the only drawback, so I use a good amount of Adams detail spray on the pad. scootertrash19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not able to remove the scratches from my son's car with any combo of foam pads & polish (SSR + green pads included). The MF pads and polish removed them in 2 passes, and finished so well FMP did not make it look any better, 07stanggt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

07stanggt Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Great work Jimmy! Have you tried the MF pads and new polish? I was not able to remove the scratches from my son's car with any combo of foam pads & polish (SSR + green pads included). The MF pads and polish removed them in 2 passes, and finished so well FMP did not make it look any better, I have the microfiber pads and did use them after the SSR was done. As far as the owner and the repaint goes, I did have to call 911 when her head hit the floor when she saw her "new" car !! Needless to say, she was impressed.
