    As always, great instructions on a high maintenance area on the Mustang that always gets dirt from the shortest drive. I just recently changed out the entire panel, about $90.00 to delete the horse and just have a plain black panel. It will definitely be easier to keep clean, and I appreciate the instructions to do so. Auto Fanatic 007 is my key ingredient to reach that goal! Thank you for that!

    I have a new 2019 GT350 that now has about 3K miles on it. Just noticed last week that someone tried to steal my rear badge. I have been pissed off and stewing on this and how to fix the scratches and possible cracks in the panel every since. I may get the nerve to try out your technique. Awesome channel and thanks for all of the great content that you post!

    My 18 has fine swirls on it...have to do this. Dealer didnt wash it before I picked it up so I guess it must have been from the factory. Oh well just some fun time with the car...loving that 007 you sent me man! Stuff is awesome. Forgot I had a gallon of the Adams detail spray for a while lol

    Thank you, this is exactly what I needed! The BOSS system looks pretty impressive, may have to give it a try. I typically use a lot of Chemical Guy's stuff for 2-stage paint corrections, but will give this a shot.

    Micro fibers scratch the decklid, literally anything Ive used to clean off a little spec causes scratches. Seems like you'd have to do this every other day if it just scratches the same after fixing it

I will probably just get a flex buffer because German crap is usually good and should last a long time although the boss system was looking nice to me also. If I start a detailing side business I want something a bit more industrial so I was thinking of the flex buffer 3401 hd model, is it that much better than the Griot’s? Everyone seems to love the flex
