2010 Mustang V6, Jet Black new car prep

Here I am, thoroughly cold, but glad to have a little income this time of year. The owner has just bought this car and wanted all dealer products and swirls removed. I agreed. It was about 32 degrees at the peak of today, and it certainly makes for hard work, but it was fun. The owner did have a heated tap at his house though so the foam gun was still usable. Because of the cold I have no 'during' pictures as I was having to move fast to prevent products from freezing on the paint. Swirls were minimal and light for the most part so I used a one-step polish, two passes on most of the car.

CG Citrus W&G, heavily concentrated in foam gun to remove dealer wax, etc.
Menzerna Final Polish on white pad for most of the car
Meguiars 105 on orange pad for the heavier stuff
Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant
Dodo Juice Supernatural
Various Cobra Microfibers & Waffle Weave
CG Citrus Gel wheel cleaner
CG Blue Clay
CG Clay Lube
Wolfgang Black Diamond tire gel
Porter Cable
Stoner's Invisible Glass
Various tools, dressings, etc.

Sorry the pics are bad, my camera was acting up. But you get the idea.

AFTER:
















NOTE: I focused on taking pictures of the paint more than anything as that's about all I had time for. Rest assured, the rest was cleaned. Also, after pics are before glass cleaning, etc.

2010 Mustang V6 is really a nice ride. Indeed the design and the look stands out. Just looking at the car makes me think about getting a new car.
