Auto Obsessed performed a New Vehicle Prep Detail to this 2017 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350. 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 paintwork underwent multiple spot polishes in order to perfect it before application of XPEL Ultimate Paint Protection Film to the entire vehicle and XPEL Stealth to the black stripes. We then finished the vehicle in CarPro CQuartz Professional ceramic coating.

CarPro CQuartz Professional is a professional only product and can only be applied by or sold to official CarPro accredited installers. Auto Obsessed is an accredited dealer and installer of CarPro CQuartz Professional. CarPro CQuartz Professional represents the ultimate development of the CarPro line of advanced nanotechnology coatings. Backed by a 2-Year CarPro Certified Warranty, CQuartz Professional offers a high gloss and a rich finish, with great scratch resistance.
