Wolfgang/Souveranized Black 05 Mustang GT

[03COBRA]

Well my mom finally got it. We ordered it about a month and a half ago, and it`s here. They ran into a snag have way through the building process, they ran out of transmissions and spoilers. But who cares, it`s here now. This thing is awesome, not quite my 03 Cobra, 120 more horses with the cobra. This thing has the loudest stock exhaust I have ever heard on a car, I didn`t even think a car could be this loud from the factory. She works for a local Ford dealer so she was able to get an awesome deal, and a 1.9% loan, can it get any better. She did get the infamous black, which I can`t believe how many swirls there are. But I was able to get them not to detail it for her!:D It looks like I will need to hit it up with #83, #80 with polishing pads to get it where it needs to be. The car is pretty quick, the transmission is very good. Anyways, on to the pics!

Very nice car. The interior is bad a**!!!!

you mentioned you`d use #83 and then #80. Is this combo popular?? I always thought you could use these as `either or` and not both. just due to the fact they do the same thing (just different abrasive levels).

I guess another way to look at it would be this:
if you did a good job with #83, then if you used #80, the #80 would have alot more polishing effect than you would really need after the #83??!!! make sense anyone. I have both and love`em.

wow! seeing that car on the streets lately all dealer prepped, or dirty made me really give it a thumbs down. but seeing it nicely detailed and shining the right way makes me want one. oh and the 300 hp wasnt a turnaway either... id love one of those ponys.

#80 will remove the marring left behind by #83. Sometimes it`s not an issue, but most of the time you need to follow #83 with a less abrasive polish like #80.

you bet #80 would remove the marring left behind by #83....it`ll remove alotmore than that! kinda overkill i guess my point being. maybe a lighter polish would be adequate (Menza FP, ssr1, #9,81)?????

BTW killer car and good work so far! have fun with the black!

You put down sealant before the Souveran. I`m about to receive a can of Souveran from another member, and I thought that the Souveran was to be laid down first, THEN the sealant? Please advise...

My proposed process will be to:

wash
clay
UPC
Souveran
UPP

Thanks,
Charles

noooo. ;) - souveran is a wax - the sealant will not bond you need to go sealant then wax - not the other way round :)

I would try using #80 or even #82 Before going with the #83 DACP.
According to the Meguiars abrasive scale:
#83 = 6
#80 = 4
#82 = 3
The higher the number ... the more abrasive
Also, I am not sure, but the Glaze will effect the bonding of the sealant.
Great looking car!!! :)

I agree as I would think on a new car #80 and maybe even #82 would be more than adequate, as it`s always best to start with the least agressive necessary to do the job. I can`t imagine the surface being to bad on a new car. I would do a quick clay, #80, VM, EX P followed by S100. There are definitely other combinations that would look awesome, but that`s been my favorite flavor on my balck mustang. I bet that Mustang will look killer when all done.:mohawk

I did try a section using VM, not strong enough. Then I tried FP II, not quite enough. Then I did A section with #80 and it did a pretty good job on them. I think I will be able to do just 2 passes with #80 and be satisfied. But I will keep you guys up to date on what`s going on!!!
