Detailed after 15 years outdoors: the incredible transformation of a classic Ford Mustang

Posted on

I have to admit that these types of videos “align my chakras”. For me it is really relaxing watch a car regain its shine, gradually lose its dirt. That detailed spa treatment is an almost magical process. It is especially noticeable when the car has been out in the open for years or in a dirty environment. This is the case of this classic Ford Mustang, of this “Fox body” from 1991. A version with the 5.0 V8 engine and convertible bodywork that the guys from MAD Detailing have brought back to life.

The car was really dirty and neglected. To remove the deepest layer of dirt they used a APC cleaner, a water-diluted all-purpose. Then, and after letting it act, they washed it with a pressure lance and then by hand. The most difficult areas were agitated with soft brushes, so as not to cause scratches. For the tires, as always, the “holy hand” is the iron decontaminator, capable of tearing off the entire lining without effort. In this article we teach you how to use it and apply it for a perfect result.

Cleaning a dirty car is one of the most relaxing activities in existence.

The interior of the car also receives a complete beauty treatment. The leather seats are cleaned and moisturized, the carpet is cleaned and all the plastics in the interior are cleaned, giving the car an almost re-run look. The paint on the body had lost its shine, but with an orbital polisher, a quality polish and a subsequent ceramic treatment, recovers all its brightness and presence. The final result is a car, which, in the absence of updating on a mechanical level, looks better than new. Simply wonderful.
