FD- 2001 Lightning (Modded)


FinishedDetailing

Recommended Posts

I had the privilege to detail a 2001 Ford Lightning. This one is no joke.

Besides it needing some shine put back in to that amazing black, this car put's down near 600rwhp with over 700tq. Off nitrous.

 

This was not a full paint correction job, but the process was not light by any means. I spent 7 hours on the exterior of the vehicle.

 

Wash/Dry (Compressed air on hard to get areas)

Wheels/Wheel wells cleaned/wheels polished.

Clay

1 Pass buff w/orange pad

1 pass polish w/white pad

1 pass wax w/black pad

1 pass with Brilliant Glaze

 

Most of my products are Adam's!

Flex 3401

Of course the PC 7424 as well

 

As most detailer's do not like to hear, my camera is not the best of quality.

Thanks guys!!

 

I LOVE the Flex! I use it in place of my PC with SHR step, instead I use "other guys" stuff with the flex. Then continue to polish with PC, either butter wax or SMW with PC then BG.

 

The flex takes some time getting use to, and is more expensive, but definitely can handle the more damaged clear coats to restore and is quicker. I like it better then a rotary.

 

The PC is still my most used machine and is very handy. :pc:
