Talking Roush Bullit Complete Paint Correction/Full detail

I was very excited to see this Bullit when i was contacted for an appointment. It did not dissapoint. The car was modified with a Roush 2.1 litre twin screw blower. The car was very dirty and has just traveled some 1500 miles to it's home here in Florida. After the owner stressed his biggest pet peeves it was off to work for me. here are some initial pics of the the filthy beast.






















as you can see the car was pretty filthy.

the car was washed several times with dawn using the two bucket method.

it was then dried and clayed using clay magic clay and dawn suds as lube. i find this works well as you can just rinse the car off and not worry about clay residue.

just some pics of APC doing its thing on some area's i decided needed more scrubbing.







After:





the wheels were cleaned with APC and Elbow grease, then waxed with megs nxt2.0. tires were then dressed.




The car was then corrected using Menzerna IP on an orange lake Country Pad. Final Polishing was with meg's #205 and a sonus white pad.

here is a 50/50 shot of the two polished steps. the left side has not been polished notice the hollowgram on the lower left.





happy with the clarity after polishing

Exhaust tips were polished with mothers metal polish

before




after





outside in the bright florida sun.




I was happy with the depth so i decided to add my company logo.




to add more wet the car was then waxed with Dodo Juice Blue Velvet and then a layer of Dodo Juice Supernatural.

Nice car! I hope that bottom end is done, are running a very mild tune, that blower is capable of putting out big power!

Nice car and great job bringing it back to its glory!!

Wow, that Roush shift handle seems very high compared to the Hurst... but still looks good, especially with the Bullitt boot!!
