Can a PROFESSIONAL Detailer Fix my Foxbody's BAD Paint?

[@JaredR1996]

This Foxbody to me is just amazing. It’s practically a race car for the street. Keep up the awesome with this car Craig

[@Thecraig909]

Thank you Jared. Will do!

[@pimpovic2]

It's a pretty common and budget upgrade package for the 302. Hardly a racecar 😁

[@YungEagle3k]

It's definitely no where close to a racecar

[@dc1usn]

How to keep your black car clean....... Paint it white. 😂😂

[@chestrockwell8328]

I was using Jax Wax from their beginning back around 1993; they are local to me and would stop by the shop I worked at and ask us to test their products...cool to see Jax Wax is all the way in California.

[@jackpaul5961]

Craig I’ve been watching your videos for a while now and I absolutely love them!! I’ve gained an insane amount of knowledge from you. So thank you for that!! Videos are killer, keep up the great work, beautiful vehicles and the never ending life of FOMOCO!!

[@johnsarian_cu]

It's confirmed every day - the right tools (and compounds) is most of what you need. Know-how next. And brawn and patience to get it done. Great tip on porosity and its effect BTW.

[@cerqinator6116]

Looks amazing dude. Been a while since I’ve seen your old daily. Love the new daily a lot more.

[@HattemMorse]

Soo excited! Pumped every time you post! Keep up the killer work Craig!

[@donovanmccoy5145]

to keep the black clean i just use good ol maguiars cleaner wax or gold class wax in the tin

[@portlandon]

I had a black 58 TBird for years. Beautiful. But by the time I had the California duster run down one side of the car, it was time to dust the other side again. I just did circles dusting the whole show.

[@DarthSkath]

Dang bro I’m a OG now I remember that focus

[@2exiw]

I only use the blue and the white pad. The green and yellow I used when I was new to the system. Him teaching you how to do it. He is using way to much compounded. You don’t even need half that amount.

[@waynehardy6186]

the focus is your daily from a while back

[@robert23497]

Love your style. You are wearing glasses in the video....LOL. You had a 1500 dollar paint correction done on a 5.0 with a 200 dollar paint job....with no paint on the roof. I LOVE foxbodies but man ,your style is awesome

[@ynohtna1126]

Came across your channel and gained a subscriber. Great content and sweet ride man.

[@2000blackstang]

Looking good! I'm going to have to use these products on my 2000 black gt. Mine needs new paint on the roof and wing too though. The clear is coming off of those.

[@mikemullay5622]

I do remember that little white car. Come a long ways since then.

[@garrettgoy5441]

Oh the good old focus egg

[@jerrenb...]

Im upset i just found your channel you really have done a lot of things i want to do and i am doing

[@2000blackstang]

Is that a v6 magnum In the background with a skull paint job? My brother's body shop painted one that looks just like it

[@smallestpickle]

Any way you can consolidate a tools, supplies and parts list for everything that you've done on the car? I've been very hesitant on repainting my IS300 due to lack of knowledge and what tools to get in order to get the paint looking brand spanking new.

[@ivywells3901]

Been subbed since you had 8k subs, I remember the white focus, still dirt nasty low 😂

[@gabenieto3113]

5:34 we gonna ignore the svt contour that pulled in behind Craig

[@stevenautumnmyers6329]

The ffoocus was so sweet it has been a min since ce www saw it . Didn't you buy some junk yard parts for it that was rare you cleaned them with the aluminum brightener

[@cameronkendall9113]

The focus is sick lol. I just have a feeling you will buy that thing back one day and make it sick

[@aubcivil98]

Great looking car. Paint on that quarter window trim would finish it off!!

[@josiahlinquist4043]

I only saw that car when you were in the process of buying the fox body

[@michaelsims4188]

I remember it

[@Wyoming35]

looks great but when are you going to fix the window trim

[@sc_308]

Freakin' sweet! great video Mr. Craig! 😎 👍

[@jacobmiele4168]

Ive said it once and I will say it again, thank you for the amazing content Craig.

[@Abzocold]

Pro tip: You can't keep a black car clean. I used to campaign a black show car, won a lot of Best Paint trophies. And I will never, ever, EVER, own another black car. Not even a beater.

[@blackenigma1054]

where did you find those hood pins?

[@Ethan-yg8me]

Just got rid of my fox about a month and a half ago.. I need another one lol

[@jonlennon3348]

Your foxbody is looking pretty damn good.

[@brandonknight7240]

My 88 got new black paint 4 months ago but needs a pro to do a correction to it too lots of compound left all over im to impatient 4 that

[@OCGreens]

[@SubterraneanBruh]

Can the roof a d spoiler be shined up with a compound and polish? Or does it need to be recleared?

[@Vaino_Hotti]

[@bradschoonover1595]

Dude that think looks awesome and what is your wheel offset and size because I'd like to get that combo for my mustang

[@underconstructiongarage]

Hey Craig love the videos, what wheels and offset are those? I’m building a 69 f100, swapped in a rear axle from an explorer and it is a good bit narrower

[@kenmorelli6631]

Paint it flat black and it will still look good

[@alien3886]

Yeah if you take it to Maaco Maybe 🤣🙃

[@mrchadwick40]

OG

[@kennyvelez8060]

Little by little the stang is coming along, however every time you do anything to it it shows other things that need some attention to, yes the trim but the gaps and fitment of all the body panels needs adjustments (bad), and when you do deside to paint the top you should consider just painting the whole car top to bottom front to back, you'll be surprised how much better it would look after that, not sayin it look bad now tho, scale 1 to 10 now, I'd say 6, after adjustments and paint, could be a solid 10,

[@dre5973]

still waiting for the a/c to be finished

[@danielpetersen3321]

The only way to keep a black car clean paint it white

I had a black truck and lived on gravel. The secret to keeping a black vehicle clean is so simple. Don’t drive it.

Ceramic coating mah dude. If you get it properly ceramic coated all that water will just roll off and you can do very minimal car washes w/ceramic coating approved car wash materials.

[@NoNo_Notlikethat]

The best tip I ever learned doing detail and new car prep, regarding how to keep black cars clean for more than a day: Ready? You're really learning a trade secret, here... No. 1 way to keep black cars clean for more than a day? Answer: You can't. It's called the "black tax". It looks amazing for about an hour, but then you're chasing dust, water spots, bird poo, finger prints, etc. Rinse-less Wash and quick-detail spray are your friends. You can a car cover when you park overnight, but it's a matter of how particular you want to be.

Wow, I'd not heard of Jax Wax and just Googled it they have a location only 10 mins from away from me in El Sobrante CA.

The driver side needs to be repainted whenever you do paint the roof and wing the colors not quite there otherwise great painting

Does your car have AC and if it does, can that use more of your gas?

[@bigbaby1177]

Talking about the Clear being too far gone on the roof, is there a way to do some kind of FO TINA? Not the whole rust look, but some kind of precision wet sanding. Kinda like how your other Fox body turned out. In the long run I see you repainting the whole car anyway.

[@YungEagle3k]

Probably way too thin

[@haroldgetchelljr3264]

Looks great

[@mromatic17]

Craig question, My brother is planning on moving out to San Diego and I told him not to cuz like in LA everywhere you go is overrun with homeless crackheads. I know that most of southern and central california is like this but IDK if oceanside is like this. Is it bad there in the San Diego area? mustang looks great BTW!!

[@Thecraig909]

San Diego is sooo much better than LA. Literally anything north of the 8 freeway is chillen in my opinion. Love it out here

[@mromatic17]

@@Thecraig909 ok hopefully it will stay that way. I honestly think everything other than San Diego should just fall into the ocean. it would be nice if they cleaned it up but democrats don't do that. I love California but they have all but destroyed it. its sad that kids can't even walk to school w/o stepping over needles.
