This weekends detail #1....Impreza WRX WR Blue
 
Hi all :luxhello:

so this weekend I did this Impreza WRX for a friend of a neighbour. I had been promising for ages to give it a clean-up after the winter weather we had. It hadnt been cleaned since before christmas and so was pretty bad. Check the wheels, not they havent been refurbed steel gray, they are meant to be silver :cuckoo:

As this was a quick afternoon cleanup and then some protection I haven't gone into a full write-up, as couldnt wor miracles in abput 3 hours so time prevented me from taking pictures from every stage. But shows I hope what a turnaround can be achieved in a couple of hours or three on a nice rare sunny saturday afternoon.

Products in a nutshell.

* AutoBrite Magifoam - Nilfisk Washer / AB Foam Lance
* Espuma Revolution, Espuma RD50, Tardis, G101
* ONR
* Jeffs Acryllic Prime Strong
* Colinite 845
* CG Bare Bones
* Britemax Polish/ Sealant
* VP Dionysus Trim Glitz (love this product)
* Jeffs Wekstatt Acryllic kit

So, on with the pictures.... (I had permission to leave the reg plates in BTW, owner was not concerned, normally by default would obscure them for owners)

Cheers guys much appreciated, Its such a very satisifying colour when it pops :thumb:

Given a few more hours would have like to have done a proper decontaminattion and clean of the paint and maybe a single stage machine pass. But the Jeffs Prime and Trigger doesnt seem to have done too bad even without that.

I thought it was about time I did a scoob....I have been over on the darkside for what seems like an eternity ( I know, :nono:) but came to my senses and I am coming to the end of my treatment for them ... over them now :lol1::lol1:
