Buying a 1965 Fastback Mustang is very harmless to Jeff Shaffer and the Shaffer Restorations team, especially since they partnered with Tamco Paint to restore it flawlessly. And there’s no doubt that they can bring it back to life, even while using the Ford Twilight Turquoise. This Twilight Turquoise is a homage to the mid-60s blue-green shade classic. It now looks timeless, an attempt that was achieved.
Jeff and his team started off with the HR397 Wax & Grease Remover, the HR397W Waterbourne Wax & Green Remover, and the HR398 Final Wipe for extra measure when it comes to cleaning the surface of a vintage car that they want to take care of. Then they put the HP5310 Grey DTM (Direct to Metal) Primer Kit for a better adhesion and preservation, it was followed by the Forever Seal to keep its hold and create a standardized foundation.
Finally, the Ford Twilight Turquoise was applied before topping it off with the HC2104 High Solids Clearcoat.
The Mustang is now an ageless fan favorite. It shows creativity and special craftsmanship, a stunning crossover of the past and present.
