I need my 04 Cobra detailed in a bad way. Claybar and the works. I doubt it has been done once since rolling out of the factory.

How long does it normally take to do a mustang with that "turtles black box" your first time out ?

Took me two to two and a half hours to do without using a polishing machine so I'm sure you would cut the time if you used a machine instead of just doing it by hand.

Have been using Meguiars products for years, however, I recently had the opportunity to try out Mother's Reflections and am very impressed with the results. Went on easy, came off even easier compared to NTX 2.0. I am a believer!

Washed, clayed, and waxed mine this weekend. I took my my sweet time because of the heat and finished about 4 hours later. Haha
I used the Mother's Instant Detailer (red bottle) and my Meguiar's NTX 2.0 wax.
Justin, I might have to check into that Reflections wax to see if it comes off any better. That NTX was a lot of circles for my arm after washing and claying. =|

How long did you let the NTX sit on the car for before buffing it off?

I used a microfiber and my hand to buff. LOL
I let it haze over a little then started to "wax off". Maybe 20 seconds or so.

Collinite 845 right after purchasing. User friendly, apply with a d/a to get your coat thin, will not stain trim white, useful on paint, glass, trim and wheels

Nicks sounds like a good option, but does anyone have any references in the north Dallas, Plano, Frisco areas? I drove through some sort of yech from a construction vehicle or kicked up from a construction zone. Need pro opinion.
Thanks
