Foxbody Mustang Trim Painting on Project "Tax Return" - TIPS04E19

Looking to freshen up the look of the trim on your Foxbody Mustang or Classic car? Check out this video as I run you through how I prep and paint my trim on this 1988 Ford Mustang Coupe. It's very important you use the right products for the right applications in order to get a nice looking and long lasting result.
Prep your surface with 400 grit sandpaper and finish off with a purple scotch pad! Recommend: 3M Scotch-Brite Hand Pad 7447 PRO
Below is the PAINT product I used in the video which does NOT require primer!
TRANSTAR 2 in 1: www.amazon.ca/...
If you want some other great products to consider check out the below. Note you will have to prime your surfaces first especially if you have bare metal present.

I couldn't get the NPD windshield clips to install no matter what I did. After about two hours, I decided to compare them to the OEM clips from my 1991 notch. The NPD clips are very different; the shape and overall size is different, but most importantly, the "throat" part that clips around the stud is about 1-2 mm narrower than OEM. I cleaned up my rusty clips, painted them, and they popped right on. I took some images comparing the two, but cannot attach them. I looked online, and found some from Amazon and other manufacturers that look to be a close match. I followed your directions for prepping and painting the trim, and they came out great! Thanks! I am the original owner of this car and it has 199K miles, but I'm bringing it back.

[@jmart2432]

As always, your attention to detail and patience show excellent results. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. That’s a wicked looking car!

[@mysticker11]

[@roadsideguy5902]

Thanks for taking the time to teach me. Much appreciated.

[@Death656]

Another great video I’ll be tackling all my
Moldings this weekend, thanks TIP

[@markweber7275]

A helpful tip use 00 steel wool and finish with 0000 steel wool to eliminate glass contaminated with road film/ overspray. Try on a old piece of glass finish up with auto glass cleaner. Hope you like the result, looks like new glass when finished.

[@TheInfamousProject]

I've actually used this on the inside of rear glass to get off old Tint Film Glue and not damage the rear defrost lines! Good tip.

[@droogii1142]

Nice trim makes such a difference. Good tip with the razor blade to clean the glass up.

[@Adrenacyde]

Doin' a GREAT job on the Content man. Definitely your unique flavour. Keep 'em comin'.

[@TheInfamousProject]

Thank you sir

[@red_fox_flareside]

I agree. It looks funky having the front and rear moldings on and not the doors.

[@GearHead704]

Once Tiffany finishes sanding I think I'll have her do this to all the trim, I'm sure she won't mind the extra work 🤣

[@TheInfamousProject]

LOL! You've got a keeper my friend

[@simcoecountygearheads]

I’m with you on the door mouldings I can’t stand when guys leave them off.

[@simcoecountygearheads]

I’m saving this for my Sunday morning coffee 😂

[@TheInfamousProject]

Hahaha!

[@brucebell7623]

Joined your channel, enjoy the content.
Will be doing trim on my 88 coupe.
Could you list material mentioned, and best place to source products in one zhot if possible? Thank you.

[@mikepoppjr]

I like the molding on the sides nice antenna...😆

[@TheInfamousProject]

Ya that thing is getting taken off!

[@89gt5.0]

Your attention to detail is key to a nice fox.. need some 17 inch wheels now 👍

[@1991CALYPSO]

That car has 17" Pony's...

[@89gt5.0]

Meaning not the pony’s. After market.all stock mustang wheels are horrible looking

[@blackgtfoxovert6104]

Good knowledge thank you!

[@sean6049]

Thank you! Only video on UA-cam showing install of rear window trim on fox coupe.
So i install the rear bottom piece, you connect the top peice to the side peices and install them all together?

[@TheInfamousProject]

You can start with the top piece and go the other way as well just make absolute sure it's centered

[@sean6049]

@@TheInfamousProject Thanks! I'm gonna give it a shot soon. Just waiting on 2 clips I'm missing along the top.

[@josephshenette812]

What is that rim, tire size combo? Looks good.

[@chrisdodson7950]

Have you every polished a windshield that was scratched ? I've heard it can be done on an old windshield with nice results instead of replacement .

[@TheInfamousProject]

Yes you can however there is a limit to the depth of scratches and pits the polishing can get out

[@dennis17116]

Which trim paint has the deepest black and shiniest satin?

[@dalemayhew7523]

Where do you find your trim repair products

[@shawnwhite3209]

Great job as always ! I have a question for you . Do you know what color the interior windshield trim is on a 90 vert? Looks too be a grey ish but I'm being told it's black which I feel is incorrect. It definitely isn't the same as the black satin exterior windsheild trim. Thanks for any help

[@TheInfamousProject]

I know what you're talking about but I do not know the official color

[@shawnwhite3209]

No worries , thanks for getting back too me. If you happen too come across the name of the color let me know.

[@sammymendezjr1864]

Maybe you can answer my question just install aftermarket roof molding but we're the quarter window meet its not flat it stick up a little and bothers me .

[@TheInfamousProject]

Email me a pic or DM on Instagram and I will try to help

[@johnterlizzi4644]

I have chrome trim on my 79 ghia can I do this same process?

[@TheInfamousProject]

You would need to etch the hell out of the chrome first if you want it to last!

[@dennis17116]

Which trim paint to you prefer? Looking for the smoothest satin finish. Thanks.

[@TheInfamousProject]

The SEM or Marhyde are the best for sure

[@user-maxim_79]

Find me a unmalested Coupe! 5spd. 1990-93. Please!!

[@TheInfamousProject]

Sure. Send me your wish list and budget [e-mail]

[@bozhang4231]

I’m just trying not to say anything about your feelings or not that you’re not feeling good

[@tuxedo_foxny6130]

Project auction?

[@TheInfamousProject]

I've thought about doing that!

[@1991CALYPSO]
