I ended up using a pad cleaning chemical from Pinnacle, and then I...
I have a Harbor Freight DA (gear grease has been changed) and a Buff and Shine backing plate for it. I've have Buff and Shine foam pads on hand; 3 orange, 2 white, and one black. I'll be using these on my black 2014 Mustang GT that I've kept in great shape and doesn't show a need for a really...

Thanks! It's not a BOSS 302, but it's wearing BOSS 302 wheels that I got for a song. Other mods include Eibach springs, short throw shifter, FRPP mufflers, FRPP GT TracKey, and Roush splitters. I love this car!
