2012 Mustang A lil Kona photoshoot with a female friend

I have been really busy with work, so I haven't been on any of the Mustang Forums recently and forgot to post a couple pics from a lil photoshoot a friend of mine wanted to do with my car, she offered free pics so I decided to help her out. haha

On a side note, I have never had such a pain in the butt time keeping a color clean as I have on my Kona Blue. lol

Thank you for your time.

Thanks guys, I am super **** about keeping in clean, so I normally end up washing it or waxing it just about every time I drive it (which is not all that often since its a pain to keep clean haha).

As for where her hand is... well... yeah.... lol

Thank you very much!

I get flack from friends all the time since I hardly ever drive it because its such a pain to keep it spotless. Some coworkers at work that started work in the fall don't even know I have a Mustang since it hardly ever leaves the garage lol.

For the shine I use Smart Wax made by Chemical Brothers.



To help cut down on the amount of dust attracted to the dark dark color I used ArmorAll Extreme Shield Wax

Interesting. Have you tested the armor all wax? Like use it then don't to see if it really makes a difference?

My car is not a dd. So it'll be clean and a few days later sitting in the garage it's all dusty.

Thx for the info KC.. Ill give them a try. I just got my mustang in September ( DIB in color ) and the dealer shine has been excellent but it will be due when it comes out of the garage in the spring.

Thank you all for the kind words!

I tried the Armor All Extreme Shield Wax because other popular waxes such as Meguiers and Mothers attracted dust like crazy on this particular color. The Extreme Shield helps hide minor scratches and didnt attract dust nearly as much as other popular brands.

The Smart Wax Spray I use as a shine enhancer and is super easy to apply on all surfaces, paint, trim, glass and it smells great (like bubble gum) and is less costly then other popular brands that didnt seem to do nearly as well and it seems to attract less dust then the other "M" brands.

Unfortunately the simple act of rubbing any wax of any type is enough to cause a static charge that will attract dust no matter what (think along the lines of rubbing your shocks on the carpet in your home and then shocking yourself on a door ****, same thing happens to any car when you rub it down with any wax).
