Let me begin by saying Meguire's FTW!!!! Here's what I did, using all Meguire's products. I think I'll be a fan for life; hard to beat the quality for the price.

1. Washed the Stang
2. Clay barred. Didn't realize how much difference this would make. :nice:
3. Waxed with the Cleaner Wax.
4. Washed again. (It got driven a little after the cleaner wax, and I wanted to be damn sure it was clean before I waxed it again.)
5. Waxed with NXT Tech Wax 2.0.

:eek: I don't think the paint has ever been in this good of a condition; I know it hasn't since I've had it. The first time it got rained on (overnight), I drove it first thing the next morning. I don't think I've ever had a car that would dry itself at 80 mph. :D I love it. I heard some of you guys talking about NXT Tech Wax 2.0 and how much you liked it. Well, let's say that I'm a believer now as well. :)

These first few pics are of the Stang (before the waxing occured) on July 4th weekend at the Albemarle Sound in NC.

The next few are after I waxed it.






And even the windows are squeaky clean!


A little while back I asked about painting the calipers. Well, I did it, and am very pleased with the results.

Before:


After:



And before anyone says anything about it, yes, I know it's a truck...:notnice: But I'm going to hopefully fix that sometime, or at least some of it. I'm kinda leaning towards the Bullitt suspension kit, mainly because I'm on a budget. Anyone know how much drop an Aero SN-95 would get out of the Bullitt kit?

And also, my car will unfortunately be sitting out quite a bit now that I'm at school and all. Anyone have any good advice on how to keep the paint/interior in good condition? I would like to keep the car as clean/original looking as possible. Thanks!
