So I did this detail on my 21st birthday (Friday, the 26th) for one of my best customers. I was supplied with hot water for QEW and carpet cleaning, music, power, and great company whenever needed. The owner (Craigster) found me on Autopia and I did his Malibu Maxx last month.
Anyways, just did the exterior (interior on his nephew`s 2004 GT, but no pics) for the Mach. The paint on Ford`s just plain sucks. I thought it might`ve just been my dad`s Cobra, but aside from the overabundance of orange peel, the paint is VERY chip sensitive. The horizontal surfaces pit and etch very easily, but the swirls were a pain to remove. Anyways, final processes were:
-QEW w/hot water :)
-Poorboy`s Clay
-Menzerna PO106 via rotary and LC polishing pad @1500-1700rpm
-Poorboy`s EX by hand
-BnB on tires and plastic trim
-HD in wells
