Default How to make your mustang look shiny and new

With some free time during Christmas Break, I decided it would be a great time to wax the stang. It also happend to be during Christmas Day, I got this nice waxing system for my car that works GREAT! It's called the MOTHERS Ultimate Wax System. What is unique about this system is that it consists of 3 different bottles that gives your car a great shine.

The first bottle is a cleaner that gets rid of old wax, salt, tar and other grimes that the human eye can't see. It was amazing after I washed my car pretty well do see all this dirt come off of the car from the cleaner!

The second bottle is a sealer and glaze that gets rid of some scratches and any swirls or imperfections your car has. It was puts a great shine on your stang that is pretty unique

The third bottle is the actual wax. The wax makes the car look brand new and has a beautiful shine! You get a lot of compliments on it!

I also used the MOTHERS Power Ball to use as a buffer while putting all of the 3 chemicals on and it worked great! Its pretty cool since it attaches to your drill just like a regular drill bit and is nice and soft to use on your car.

If you use this system you have to make sure you do it right and use ALL of the bottles in the system. I spent about 3 hours with each bottle on the car so the entire job will take about 9 hours. I know this sounds like a while but if you seperate it into 2 days it isn't too bad!

I have tried many different companies and their wax such as Turtle Wax and many others, but this is easily the best. I heavily suggest this system to anyone who wants to make their mustang look great. Hands down the best out there! The system only costs about 32 bucks and is well worth it... Heres a site with more info.. Mothers Ultimate Waxing System

Hope this suggestion helps!!!

something about a power drill that close to your paint makes me cringe.

it was actually more like 6-7, and i did it in 2 days so its not like I did it all at once, besides i can see why you wouldn't care keeping your car clean since its a 94 oldy...... He he...... J/K :clap:


And ya the power drill thing was kinda weird to do with the drill being so close to the paint, but u just gotta be careful..
