Default Mystichrome

Oh I've got a ton of photos. I think I have one of just about every color. This isn't to brag so please, no flamers. Just thought there are others that might like the color like I do. If there is interest in more photos, I'll post some of my favorites.

BlackOne is correct. It is a Mystichrome. Here it is in purple. I think this was the second day I owned it.

LOL got me on that one. I luv the way the color changes with the lighting. Back in the day we called it pearl paint. Had a freind with a chevelle " Pearl White" it was amazing the colors that would show in different street lights and time of day..

Very nice we should park ours next to each other and get a picture of ours. Too bad I can't make it to the VIR cruise this weekend.

Thanks alot! I'm a fan of these cars (and all Mustangs) just as you are. There are days I walk out of work and can't believe I get to drive it home. It isn't to brag, just as in awe as you are. So here is a picture I've never posted anywhere before. Since you like the water.... (oh, Zaino rules!)

I am going to mod it some. I've already put an SLP catback on, changed the grill from the running pony to the snake, and swapped out the rear view mirror for one that auto dims. Ya, you don't see many people ever talking about swapping out the rear view mirror, but I love that feature with so many SUV's always behind me. The next mod depends on if I win this months contest! I've got my eye on a few parts but with the holidays upon us, money is tight.

The last two photos were at a display our club hosts for the 4th of July.

Man... I have got to say that is beautiful!!!

How come you don't have any swirl marks??
Just curious.... Cause my baby had tons of them when I got the car..
Is this a sign of mistreatment?
Thanks,

Thanks,
The swirl marks are probably just from dust particles and dirt from normal driving. I do get swirls between coats of Zaino. If you have a black car, you NEED Zaino. That is the best product I have ever used. http://www.zainostore.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc

Using this stuff also makes it sooooo much easier to keep clean. I could go into detail on it, but the website will tell you far more than I could.

Thanks for the compliments. I'll post another picture tonight.

Oh ya. You HAVE to follow the directions. When you first start, the car should be washed 3 or 4 times with Dawn. That will get all the old wax off. From there, I think you step over to the swirl remover (I forget if that is Z5 or what they call it) and then allow that to dry. Then from there, wipe it down and put the next layer on (Z2?). You may even need to put a second coat of the swirl remover on. Best thing to do is ensure you have the entire kit. I think they sell a kit on their site and that is what I bought. Then I just followed their process.

It is time consuming but much easier if you have a friend help you out. There is a page for tips and tricks to use Zaino. I've followed exactly what they have there and my car is like glass. I highly recommend it. Now, after I wash my car, it looks as if I waxed it.

Oh... um, wow, that is the best pic yet, the car is the perfect color there!
I noticed you were 'watermarking' (lol) your other pics... nice
Right now i use a complete set of Meguirs NXT generation stuff, its like ricer wax, lol (the bottles are bright green and purple and have a modified NSX on the cover). That is a 3 part kit plus its own soap... and i also have meguires Deep Crystal wax which is also a 3 stage kit. Both of these my brother had bought in the search for the perfect wax for his 2001 Silver GT conv... so we have alot around (he is at college) Every time he comes back we wash and wax his car.. because by then it needs it!

Thanks. That is a pic inside Dorton Arena here in NC. Our club does a display each year. This was the car with only 1 coat of Zaino on it. I now have 3 coats.

I hear the NSX works very well. I haven't used it but there are a few members of the club that have and say it is very easy to use.

I wasn't sure what pic I was going to post tonight, but a club member took a picture while riding shotgun last week at VIR and it is now one of my favorites. So here it is.

Just in case the previous one isn't that exciting, here it is getting its first coat. Lucky for me my friend has a nice garage for me to do this.
