guys..take a look at your paint in the light; look deep to the bottom, (not the surface). I see swirl sand scratches that appear to be from about 180 grit jitterbug sander..... I noticed when my '05 was new it had soft paint. I put a gouge in it from my fingernail. Now the paint has settle down and done its evaporating stuff and looks to have laid into the primer coat without much of a filler coat after sanding. It is something an experienced eye can see... Take a look and let me know if you have the sand scratches....

Well from a fellow who is thinking of selling an 02 vette for the new style mustang,I have had some disapointments looking at this car. I understand its built as an afordable performance car and the reason for me wanting one is because I loved the earley mustangs and feel this is the nicest looking mustang I have seen on a show room flor since the 1970 model year. That being said look into the paint in floresent lights.and you can see thru the paint down to the bottom finish and as described you can see the work marks. I am not a professtional paint guy and its plain as day,So you dont get me wrong I am not slamming the car,as a matter of fact i cant stop stairing at one when I see them.

I am holding off on my purchase until I see the Mach 1 I just hope they put the shacker hood on it and I would have no choice but to buy one.

Now on zaino.
I used it on my yellow vette and was not so impressed.But I used it on a 1967 Black cadillac deville I own and the reulst were spectacular.It made the paint look BLACK and deep.after your first couple of coats it gets easeyer and you use less product on the car. I guess the deeper the color the better results

Plain as day if you are looking at the car with flourescent lights? Kind of a contradiction, right? Watch out if the guys from CSI stop by to check out your ride!

I'll worry about it if the paint starts chipping or peeling. For now, just be glad the Mustang is not fiberglass like the 'Vette.

Actually, I had a Saturn with platic body, and it was pretty nice when I got is a full-side scrape. Looked like nothing happened afterward. But I still prefer the metal, feels nicer, even for an "affordable" sports car.

My post is not about a Mustang compaired to a Corvette,please dont try to pull me into that childish game . I am a car enthusist dont car what style or make. As for the flouresent lights,thats whats in my Garage,and in most every showroom you go to .If you look at the car in the shade youll see the same thing,piss poor paint prep work showing thru your paint.So if you dont have a problem with it GREAT but as a car enthusist it something that disturbs me,I just have to wonder what other short cuts or less then quaility work was done on the car.
