finished detailing cobra and new cover!!

red04svtcobra · 07-01-2007, 04:47 PM

Well, I just got finished doing a detail job on the cobra with some poorboys, and it looks saweeeet!! I started off doing some clay bar on the paint and then washed again. I used my porter cable to apply some ssr 2.5 and then some ssr 1 to get rid of some swirls and spiderwebbing. Then I applied some EX-P which is a sealant and put down 2 coats of that and let it sit for 24 hours to harden and finished up with 2 coats of nattys blue. Man what a difference in the color and depth of the paint. I will post up some pics tomorrow of it since I am getting ready to head to work. I also picked me up a car cover from autogeek.net by covercraft, it is the NOAH. I love it and keeps the cobra dust free while in the garage. If anyone would like some pics of the cover I will post them up tomorrow too, because when I was looking for a cover I couldn't find any closeup pics of the cover or how it looked on the car.
