AJ Auto Detail: Trashed Mustang

This car had to have been in the worst condition out of all the car's I have worked on ever since I started detailing. Oxidation, water spots, scratches, scuffs, rock chips, bug etchings, ect. It was BAD! The owner wanted oxidation removal plus rock chips and scratches touched up. Owner told me to not bother with the interior, but I vac'd/wipedown it anyways. Didn't take too many pics since I was in a HUGE time crunch.

Process:
Wash w/ CG CWG
Clay w/ Pinn UP
Compound w/ Meg's M105
Polish w/ Menz 106ff
LSP w/ Pinn XMT Glaze


Before



During












After
