2005 Mustang - Torch Red

[wnracing]

Hello everyone, first of all I'd like to say thanks to everyone here. I've been lingering around and have learned alot of tricks from many of you and Dan (D&D A/D) has been a great help. I just recently purchased my Porter Cable 7424 along with many other goodies from AG and have finally had the chance to put them to use.

Now, I'd like to add that Im a noob when it comes to 'professional' detailing so I am most definitely still learning!

I appreciate any feedback that you can give, everyone has to learn somehow! BTW: This is my first full go @ the PC7424.

'05 V6 Mustang - Torch Red - Moderate Swirls

Products Used:
Megs NXT Tech Wash
Amazing Roll Off
Mothers Clay kit (using tech wash foam technique)
XMT #2 Swirl remover - Orange pad
XMT 360 -White pad
Megs NXT liquid Tech wax - Blue pad
and ofcourse Cobra MF towels

Meguiar's X3050 Ultra Plush wash pad
Pinnacle Safe scrub
etc..

Engine After, but before dressing:

Swirls:

After:

I wish I could have gotten some better pictures, but the weather just would not cooperate today, the sun was in and out of the clouds all day long.

I was actually very happy with the results, and honestly these pictures just don't do justice and I didn't want to do any photoshopping so I just left them alone.

Thanks!

Welcome to AGOL. We all still leaning, that is what makes this forum great. You done a mighty fine job on your detail. She looks beautiful....Nice turn around on the paint and engine. I can see a big difference....

Thanks sparkie! I really wish the sun would have been out so that I could REALLY show the difference.

And Dan, yup Im here. Been a lurker for a while now and just finally got the nerve to post some work. Thanks bud.

This is the only REAL reflection picture I could get, but thanks to the sun it washed all of the color out.

What kind of specific technique did you use for the engine??

Looks great! I'm not a big fan of NXT wax, because of it's poor durability, but the car came out very nice!

Just some good old amazing roll off, ez detail brush, and a garden hose.
