2015 Ford Edge Detail

Sorry to say that there aren't any real befores on this vehicle, it's new with about 500 miles on the clock over a 3 month period. What you see here is kind of a culmination of a proper initial prep and light polish, several washes and several LSP's over a couple of month period. The paint is Platinum White. I don't typically post pictures for a couple of reasons, first, I'm not a very good photographer and second, my subject matter typically revolves around 6 or 8 vehicles. With a bit of encouragement from Ron, I decided I would put these pics up.

I picked this car up new still in the plastic. To this point virtually all products used on this vehicle are BlackFire's products, this includes their shampoo, waterless wash, polishes, sealant and coating. The few products that are an expecption to BlackFire would be: IronX, DP Clay, Sonus MotorKote, LC and Megs pads, Megs #40 and PoorBoy's Bold-n-Bright.

Perhaps of interest to some is the fact that I've just been playing around with products. I've done some things that aren't typically recommended just to see how products worked with one another. What can I say? Too much time on my hands. Some will no doubt think I've just wasted my time in as much as I've installed two layers of Crystal Coat applied 10 days apart (not recommended) and a couple of weeks later topped the coating with 2 layers of Crystal Seal (also not reccommended). Yeah, I know, nothing sticks to a coating, right? ;)

Anyway, though I have no idea about the durability of this combinations I like where it is right now. Here are a few pics.

I thought this next pic looked pretty cool when zoomed in. I can't really tell the color, almost looks silver.

Anyway... that's probably more than you wanted to see. I'll stop now.

Took it out and got in the bugs again today. Came home and sprayed with a little quick detailer and the skeeters almost flew back off. Man this finish is slick. :yay
