Hello everyone!

I don't recall sharing pictures of my most recent work. Sorry if I did, I couldn't find a thread on it.

Either way I'll share!

This is a one year only color, Reef Blue. We bought the car about two years ago. It was a 1 owner with 27k original miles. The paint was in really bad condition. Some areas felt like sandpaper. Unfortunately, there are some areas that can't be fixed. But it turned out amazing.

I spent roughly 23 hours starting out with clay bar, followed up with a a 3-step paint correction.

Please be nice, only done 3-4 cars so I'm still learning.

I took some close up pictures to capture the scratches and marring on the paint.

I've had some friends ask me about detailing their car, but I'm unsure how comfortable I'd be doing it. And what would a job like this cost normally?

Excellent work!!! It really came out great and I love this thing! Well done!

Pricing would depend on your location...

Once again, Love it/great work! Came out great!
 
Nice job on a beautiful car. “12AM-3AM 1st step”. Would love to be able to polish anytime I wanted. I’m a night owl too.

Yeah I was on night shift. So I stay on nights on my days off. Best way to keep me busy and staying on the same work schedule.

Thanks!

Outstanding work! Car looks better than it did in 1993. Until I read you were on nights, I thought you were crazy for polishing 12AM-3AM ha!
 
I just thought he was grabbing the time where he could.
That does make sense! But no, I have plenty of free time. I work 12 hour shifts, so only 14 days a month.

I seem to get more done at night. Less distractions with the wife and doggies.

Looks great, man! Nice work! Great looking foxbody, too. That was a good color.
 
Great work - I dimly recall having a rag top in that color - white leather seats with the blue that a son drove for homecoming (team colors)
 
Nice job and that is a cool color. My first Mustang was a 92 LX 5.0 so I like the fox bodies.
