You don't really notice how bad it was until the end with after pictures:



Front end looking nasty











50/50 VRT mirror cover



Interior Before



Faded Leather





Dirty Cupholders



50/50 cleanup



Mats





Leather conditioned back to correct color



Dirty Tip



Clean Tip



Finished Shots





















No more a filthy horse, a nice shiny horse . Thanks for following it guys, she cleaned up well and for a older pony. enjoy the last pictures!

I know we are a camaro forum but everyone can respect a properly cleaned up ride!

For the wheels Sonax Full Effect was used, great and perfect product for how they came to me. After they were try and finished I went in and by hand polished them a bit to get the heavy grime off. As for the tire dressing, Adams SVRT, great product and long lasting, I am not a fan of shinny tire finishes so that matte/satin look is my go too choice.

haha I wondered when someone would ask haha. You're actually looking right at her, Allyson is the mustang nickname haha. I wondered the same thing when I picked it up cause I know his wife and knew that wasnt her name.

Thats all she need man, as soon as I was finished I swear I could hear the car exhale like it was proper again haha. I joked and told him itl be faster now without all the scratches and a smooth finish

Thanks! In this one with everything said and done I'd say around around 14 hours, more than half of that compounding and polishing since it was so bad. Probably close to 9 on paint alone.

Thanks man! chrome really flashes hard now, you know they are shinny when you cant look directly at them in the sunlight!

Haha well someone had to, and just wait till I get to my next work I have been doing for a bit. Full color sand and polish, probably have close to 80 hours in it by now, almost a never ending project. Might be a while before I have that up.
