This Mach One has only 17000 miles. The car looked great outside in the sun. however it did have a bit a dull, flat look to it.

The job took approximately 12 hours to complete. Tried to hustle, but owner was ok leaving the car with me for 2 days.
Kind of slowed down a bit and enjoyed the process this time around.

Performed a 3 step process.
1. Cut with Blackfire One Step. Perrrrfect! Could have stopped here, but not me. Gonna go for the kill!
2. Blackfire sealant. Left on overnight.
3. Blackfire Midnight Sun. A wax used to top the sealant. "Wet Ice Over Fire."

Also cleaned the interior and glass plus bunch of other stuff.

This Azure Blue is just sooooo much fun to polish out!
I was kind of depressed after it was all done---really, really enjoyed cutting that blue!

Paint was a tad on medium to medium soft side---Cutting with the AIO went really fast.

Lots of pictures coming...Hang tight!

Looks GREAT, Tommy.

I always love the buffer trail pics.

Mike P had a recent thread on "Counting your section passes out loud", but my main problem when my mind wanders is that my arm speed revs up.

Checking my buffer trails keeps that in check for me. Lol
 
Missed a picture---Hold on.

Before, polished and after.
 
Oh well---The order is messed up at last post. But guess you'll get the gist of it!

Thanks for looking!

Beautiful! Easily one of my favorite mustang designs and that color is hard to beat!

The before during and after posted pictures show a drastic change.

Looks great Tom! That's a beautiful color that really pops cleaned up.

Question: what kind of pad did you use to cut with One Step?

Thank you cgdalton...

Used the Rupes white pads.

Those really get the juices going for me. lol. One of the best sounding stock exhaust systems ever.

You added a lot of gusto to that paint, it really does look perfect. Deep and super glossy. Maybe I missed it, but what did you use for the satin black decals and the spoiler? They look great. Did you let the owner know how much you enjoyed working on it? Probably made them feel even better about the car and work performed.
 
The rumble of exhaust was one of the first thing noticed when moving it around.

As for the satin black decals, used McKee's Matte Finish cleaner and Protectant. Always use this when doing the Hellcats with those black hoods. Love the stuff!

Got this from AGO...Before McKee's moved. In case anyone questions my posting of a product not sold by AGO!

The Matte Finish Cleaner is in the picture off to right of the Blackfire products I posted above. You'll see it there.
