In this throwback to last summer, Auto Obsessed performed a Summer Prep Detail to this 2014 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. The exterior underwent a full decontamination wash including iron and tar removal. The wheels, wheel wells, doorjambs, exhaust, and engine bay were extensively detailed with a host of OBSSSSD Premium Products. The rear bumper was spot polished in order to remove scratches in the clear coat. We then finished the vehicle in Swissvax OBSSSSD Luxury Carnauba Show Wax and Swissvax Opaque wax for the matte pieces. Swissvax OBSSSSD Luxury Carnauba Show Wax is a high Carnauba content show wax containing 68% (by volume) of yellow, non-bleached, Grade One Carnauba wax from northeastern Brazil. Swissvax Opaque wax is a premium wax for all satin/matte paintwork types (including matte film) that offers great protection and looks without adding gloss to the finish.

The full OBSSSSD product line can be found here: http://obssssdproducts.com
