A 302 Mustang got her coat groomed with One Step Paint Correction

IMG_7807.JPG

The 1969 Fastback Mustang...a classic that has so much muscle, it still flexes today in 2012. This mustang has a 302 V8, shaker hood, and hood pins to keep all those ponies tamed.

Starting as a project car, this stallion has a documented and photographed history that any car enthusiast could appreciate. It's amazing how a car can come from nothing, and with a lot of TLC can transform into an icon from nearly 45 years ago. 

​We did a thorough hand wash to remove the bulk of road dirt and grime. We then prepared the paint for polishing​ by using a non-abrasive soapy lubricant and clay to remove all surface contaminants imbedded in the clear coat. This makes the paint extremely smooth and cleanses the clear coat for the next step: compound/polish. 

After applying a durable paint sealant, we had our client pull her out in the sun for a true final inspection...needless to say, with just one step, about 90% of all minor surface imperfections were removed.​ The sunset orange pearl paint lit up like a neon light when in broad daylight.

We made the Angry Pumpkin a little less angry

This may look like an ordinary 2007 Porsche GT3, but any Porsche nut will know this isn't your average GT3. This is the Stuttgart Performance GT3, otherwise known as the "Angry Pumpkin" all over the web. We found out exactly why it was angry. Read on to find out why.

​

Porsche paint is known to have except​ionally soft clear-coat, which is a double edged sword. On one side, scratches are easily put into it, but on the other, it doesn't take much work on our end to get many of them out with just one step.

That is exactly what this GT3 received; our Stage 1 Deluxe Exterior Package. The car had about 70% of all minor surface imperfections removed with just a single correction step. Usually we see anywhere from 50-60% removed, but we know that every car is different; and since this is a Porsche we're talking about, it's not a surprise that the finished product yielded a greater than typical result.
