Default Blue paintwork

Hi all,
General question - is the thickness of the paint on Impreza thinner or poorer quality?

Seems to mark and chip very easily.

Want to polish and wax the car - which products do people recommend?

I've got AutoGlym Super Resin Polish but want to buy wax.

Turtle? AutoGlym?
How often do people with blue Imprezas polish and wax their cars?
Nightmare colour the blue for showing paintwork faults especially key marks

try some Extra Gloss Polish from Halfords / ebay - it's a sealant rather than a wax, but it's very easy to apply / remove. PM me which area you're from round Wrexham as I'm round here too and am happy to let you try the EGP on a couple of panels. Also got some clay to get the surface really clean before you polish it!
