Wow Looks Like Fun
Do One Area All The Way First, Clean To Wax I Did One That Bad On A Black Mustang And Had It Looking Great Untill It Got Wet And Sucked Back In I Was Sick The Pigment Was To Far Gone.

But Than Again Even Rustoleum Can Shine

Good Luck And Enjoy

Jeff, your bill is in the mail!!!
I had a great time, and learned quite a bit, too. Mark it was a pleasure meeting you, you do good work!

I always find it amazing the change that happens when using good product. The results are truly dramatic (good technique seems to help a bit as well!).

It's good to take note of how the product reacted to the increased humidity. I'm so used to the dry temps and, the quick flashing the comes along with it, that I was able to increase my working time and area and really get the product to "work" without it drying on me too quickly.

Good times!!!

Ha Ha! Do you take rubber checks?

That's a good point about the humidity - it was nice to have some working time for a change.

Jeff, you are now known as magic man..........Kerris' 86 Mustang GT is a miracle. Love it, love it, love it...........Just to change the subject a bit...my silver pearl white Buick Riveria you reciently detailed still looks like it came off the show room floor. A recient trip to the dealership at Superstition Springs drew the attention of several salesmen. They were dazzled with the detailing you did. Keep up the good work mister! From now on the "Magic Man" is my detail guy.

Awww shucks! Wish I could take all of the credit but Marc and Mike actually did the majority of the buffing. I was trying to get the grease stains off of my driveway

Re: 1986 Mustang GT

Did you put wax on in Jeff?

After we washed it, I went ahead and hit it with Nxt.

Re: 1986 Mustang GT

Thanks for the opportunity and teaching me how to use the rotary Jeff!!! I love working on your 86 and the results speak for themselves. I thought you'd stop when we left but I guess you're like the energizer bunny! Great job on finishing the top off!! Next stop is the 68 or painting your 86! I'll be there!

Marc, thanks for coming out and helping as well as sharing your experience. I really liked the Flex and like I said, will probably have to get one!

We'll do it again when it's cooler out

Re: 1986 Mustang GT

I got some decent "After" shots in the sun.

Before:



Afters:





This is an interesting shot - we didn't work on the trunk because I want to remove the luggage rack. The left side is the quarter panel which is polished:


Door trim before:


Door trim after:


Next up:
- Finish up the interior
- Repaint the black center section of the hood
- Finish extracting the carpets and rear seats

Thanks for looking

OK, so I have to come clean here. The truth is, Spiderman actually broke into my garage and did all of the work!
