Here are some more information for Dry Chemical Mustang:
The condition of the paint on a car goes a long way in establishing how the car looks. So, what are the common things that can do a number on your paint?
Salt, sunlight, water, temperature, and oxygen will damage car paint. Fortunately, they will not do it by themselves, but must be in combination with one or more of the others. The collective action of these factors can be quite complicated. Collisions also damage car paint. This includes collisions with other objects even small bumps. Rocks flying up off the road are considered collisions as is the result of an angry ex running a key down one of the door panels. Collisions physically damage the protective coating and the underlying paint at the point of the collision, and create an opening for the combinations of the five real culprits to do their work.
Oxygen, light (especially ultra violet light), and water cause a chemical reaction in the paint. This chemical reaction can destroy the chemical bond of the protective coating. Modern car paints and protective coatings are very tough and resistant. Salt, by itself, will have no effect on most paint. You could actually pack your car in salt if the paint and protective coating was intact. First, there must be a gap in the protection. Once, there is, salt becomes very serious, and a rust disaster is imminent.
In the dry and snow free Southwest, there are many more vintage cars than in the Northeast. It is not just the absence of salt, but also the low moisture levels that cause this result. There is plenty of oxygen and even more high temperature and sunlight, but without the water and the salt, their impact is greatly reduced. The energy of sunlight is not totally safe. Car paint is sensitive to it. Temperature cycles are the worse thing. Temperature cycles tend to cause expansion and contraction of the protective surface, and this acts like a hammer or chisel making little openings.
Once there is an opening in the paint coat and the underlying steel is exposed, a chemical reaction can take place. It is between the iron in the steel and the oxygen in the water. This is oxidation or rust. This is also where salt comes into play. Salt is a conductor that facilitates and speeds the oxidation process. In the presence of salt, things will rust very quickly.
So, there you have it. The big enemies of your car's paint job are very elemental. Water, air, sunlight, and the change of temperature can all cause problems. First, they have to penetrate the protective surface coating. This is your salvation. If you keep your paint job protected, and deal with minor scratches and dings immediately, you will extend the life of the paint. Keeping your car from direct exposure to the sun whenever possible will help as well.

Afe Mustang Intakes
AFE which is short for Advanced Flow Engineering, was founded in 1999 for the sole purpose that there was a lack of choice for in aftermarket for high performance air intake systems. They have a team full of engineers, machinists, production and sales people all working together to bring the industry the best that can be offered. AFE Filters has dedicated themselves to building a superior product that had special attention paid to the finer details, thus to set them apart from everyone else. AFE claims that their products produce the same as all the others with subtle differences to increase your performance.
First we will be talking about the different filter medias. AFE offers three different filter options. We will be talking about their use on the mustangs. The first filter media, on the standard mustang performance filters there is a 5-layer progressive mesh media. The second filter media called their Pro-Guard 7 there is, you guessed it seven layers. The third filter media is called their PRO Dry S Filter media and is an oil free filter. That means when it is cleaned it does not have to be re oiled with an oil regeneration kit. Only the 5 layer oiled filter and the pro dry S filter medias are available for the mustang. Second is pleat spacing, the aFe Mustang intakes are generally 25% taller and more spaced out than competitors filters. Third is the pleat shape. By having the pleat shape rounded it allows air to flow through the tops and bottoms of the pleats thus increasing air flow. Fourth is the seal shape. AFE uses a gradual bump seal made of polyurethane which stays soft and flexible to decrease the amount of heat and chemical damage. The final difference is the degree of wicking between AFE and the competition. "Wicking" is the amount of polyurethane that is absorbed by the cotton gauze media during the manufacturing process. They strive to minimize "wicking" on all of their intakes.
Now to what AFE mustang intakes have to offer. AFE offers several different products that cater to the different vehicle applications. Gains range from about 10 horse power to about 50 horse power. Depending on the model you may be getting more horse power to improve acceleration and optimized air flow to improve fuel efficiency. With the prices for gas the highest in history who these afe mustang intakes help out quite a bit with claims of 1 to 2 miles per gallon increases in fuel efficiency to the conservative driver. They also boast that they can increase your air flow from 10-75% which again translates to power and fuel economy increases. Advanced Flow Engineerings is an industry leader in the cold air intake market and is a significant contributor to the mustang performance industry.

Dealer: Souped-up golf carts could be future
Bill Stanton has seen the future, and it looks a lot like a golf cart on steroids. For the past 43 years, Stanton and his father-in-law before him have sold used cars and golf carts through a joint business, Catalina Motor Sales and Catalina Custom Golf Carts, on Illinois 7 in Lockport.
