Boss 302 Detail

[Qship5]

Detail Perfection just finished up detailing a Boss 302 Mustang today owned by forum member Bad Boss 302. This is the third Boss we have detailed in the past few weeks. The car was brought in for a "New Car Detail" service.

Here are some before pictures.

The car wasn't in bad shape, but as you can see from the before pictures it had some swirls, scratches and imperfections.

The owner also had a small mishap with the right front edge of the bumper cover that you can see below.

It was a case of car vs. painted fence post and the car lost out.

OK, so after washing down and cleaning the engine bay and wheels, the car was sprayed with the foam cannon and allowed to soak for a few minutes. It was then thoroughly washed and rinsed with deionized water. It was then clayed to remove any embedded contaniments. Next up was polishing. This car had some different color paint areas and the front bumper that needed some extra attention, so it was a combination of Menzerna SIP, Power Finish and Super Finish polishes on various pads to suit each area of the car. After the paint correction and polishing was done I applied a coat of Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant to the car to provide depth and protection to the paint. The tires were dressed, the glass was cleaned and the interior got thoroughly cleaned.

As for the end result, the car looked great. Remember the front bumper cover and fender shot from above...

Here's the after shot of that area.

Unfortunately it was overcast this morning so I didn't have full sun to really showcase the clarity of the now swirl and scratch free paint. :(

Wow, that looks great as always, Mike!

[Bad Boss 302]

Mike, I want to thank you so much for the outstanding detail job. Everything is excellent inside and out. The car felt like it had another 100 hp as I drove it home. How did you manage that! (LoL). If anyone wants the real deal, I highly recommend Detail Perfection. As I look at the after pictures you took, I realized how dirty my computer screen is.

Thanks again Mike.

Awesome job, I cant believe how well that front fender cleaned up. Was it pretty easy to buff out?

Luckily for me it was a recently painted wood post and it just transfered the paint to the car. No dent or scratch. I tried to use some detail polish on it before I took it to Mike. He had the right stuff to take it off without hurting the finish. I'm still learning to park. I might need some curb feelers.

Great job Mike.. wish I knew how you do this.
