Many hours of hard work

Well to some of you it may not be hard work but at 50 I found it to be hard work and will pay for it later LOL. I bought a rental V6 convertible and it had swirl marks from car washes. Today and yesterday I had time to work on it.
clay bar, #2 polish, #3polish, two coats of Premium Carnuba. Added hash marks also. Lemans stripes inbound on Tuesday. But here are some pictures of the car when done. Cotton wood trees are spoiling my pics.

I get it Brad. I've got a few more years on you, and I gave my new F-150 Crew Cab it's first polish/wax Saturday. Is it just me or has cleaning a vehicle gotten more difficult.

Your car does looks good.

Looks good, wait until your 75th birthday, and you'll know what a day of polishing can do to you. My 07 GT is my baby. My wife says I love the car more then her. Not true.

well I put more hard work into it. side scoops rear spoiler. convertible bar and stripes. I now know why I see so many mustangs with only the hood and trunk done. Too many curvatures. It was a huge task to do myself.
