A Little Deep Cleaning...

Re: A Little Deep Cleaning...

i know this is wayyy off topic..but what points did you use to jack up that stang...and were there any sheet metal bends or other bending??

It looks as if he was jacking off of the K-member on the front end and I'd assume he was using the cross tube of the IRS on the rear end. On an IRS equipped mustang these would be my preferred jack points unless weld-in subframe connectors are installed.

Re: A Little Deep Cleaning...

I needed something that could just sit on them for a while, needed a gel type product. Ended up having to use P21S on them. It's thick enough to just sit there for a while without drying up or running off.

Thanks Nick!

I've checked the "number" guide and a search turns up that P21S is a carnuba wax as well as some type of wheel cleaning product. Could someone please fill me in with some more information on this product? Manufactuer, etc.?

Check that: I googled P21S and discovered that it's not a product code, but rather a manufacturer of products.

Now my question is: is there anything like this in the Meguiar's line?

Car looks great man

And the lambo shot - major drool man! twin turbo on a lambo, thats crazy

Thanks guys!

At the time, not sure if it's still valid or not, but that Lambo is supposed to be the worlds fastest Lamborghini with 1380hp to the rear wheels.

Re: A Little Deep Cleaning...

Cobra looks awesome!! What did you do to the paint and interior? Process? Products? Come on now Nick, we want to know these things!!

Interior was 40 applied with a microfiber applicator pad, then wiped down with a microfiber towel to remove the excess product.

Leather was treated with Meguiar's leather cleaner/conditioner from the D line of products.

Mats were shampooed using a carpet cleaner, and the rest was vacuumed.

Glass was cleaned with Sprayway glass cleaner.

Exterior was washed with SuperSoap frome the D line of products. Then topped with BlackFire paste wax.

Tires were dressed with Hyper Dressing from the D line, mixed at 4:1

I think thats it

Re: A Little Deep Cleaning...

looks great Nick, I think I might clean the insides of my wheels too.

Do you think Hot Rims Alll wheel Cleaner would be strong enough for that kind of work?

followed up by claying and NXT 2.0 of course.

Really depends on how far gone they are. Like I said earlier, APC+ and a little soap and water usually always works for me. They just let this car go for a while, and it needed something that could sit on it for a long period. A gel type product was the answer for this car. No different than paint, not everything works the same on every vehicle
