This place charged 750.00 for his custom Excaliber Tune.

 

Drove the Cobra around town to a couple of pawn shops. Traffic was horrible!

 

Also, I don't want a switch as I don't know where I'd put it, and don't much care to be drilling holes anywhere. If the fogs worked with the high beams on I'd consider it...but they don't.

 

Drove it along Vermont's Route 100. Pretty view when the leaves are turning.

 

John, my apologies, I will also paste this to your PM to me. I totally missed this. It's amazing how posts/questions get buried so quickly since a lot folks post on this everyday.

Anyhow, as for a strong sealant recommendation, the STRONGEST is a permanent clear coat sealant that does NOT wear off, something like Opticoat 2.0 for example. Pros: permanent sealant with beading/sheeting qualities and protects paint underneath. Cons: can be difficult to apply correctly if not experienced, and future detailing sessions means you can't apply wax/sealant on TOP of it. It's probably a plus for most folks, but for me, I love detailing so it's a con LOL

Now as to regular sealants, there are a TON. I actually have been using the same brands for a year or 2, so I am not as keen on the "newer" stuff. I personally use Chemical Guys, Wolfgang, Pinnacle, and Blackfire too. All are very easy to apply and have decent/good durability. You should see sheeting for probably 2 months or so, but all dependent on the driving conditions and how well you take care of your paint/car.

Make sense?

 

Drove her to work today... probably one of the last few drives before storage.

 

looking good Burton. I drove mine to the gym today and before I left a young woman working at the market next door joked around about it being 'her' car, and even better, it's a convertible. Apparently her son bought a mint '01 and drove it back from New York recently too. Today I applied a coat of Adam's sealant to my sterling gray fx4. Gawd that's alot of real estate to apply too. Arms felt like rubber afterwards.

 

I use Klasse for a sealant. Might not be the best, but it works well for me, is easy enough to apply, and lasts at leasts 2 months. I need to do it again before winter.

 

Thanks Darren! Yep, Adam's is good too. And yes, don't you love comments like that?

 

Burton, no worries and THANKS a million for the recommendations. Your detailing expertise is much appreciated.

I’ll also take a look at the Klasse/Adams sealers that Darren GT and Joeywhat suggested.

I’ll admit to being behind the times, as I’ve been using Meguiars #20 since the early 1990’s on my Fords. It’s always been a good product, but perhaps becoming outdated by modern standards:

 

NICE!!!
Even your parking lot space lines are the same color as the Maggie.

 

i just warshed and dried mine. It's actually a hot autumn day here in BC. Heading to car wash to use a high powered vacuum and then price tires at a dealer where i have a VIP card.

 

She looks great Darren.
Happy shopping.

 

Even with my discount, the MPSS tires are a FORTUNE up here in Canada but i had to check. Back to plan A, buy a set just south of the border in the spring, or a bit sooner.

 

Fog lights wired in, everything seems to work.

 

Window tint, paint protection.

 

Haha thanks tony. Although the lines are green the Maggie is ford blue

I'm jealous of the weather and your car Darren

 

You're welcome sir.
The lines do look blue on my screen. lol

 

I drove it 192 mph.

 

Pics or video, or it didn't happen, lol
