Impreza gets a polish
Impreza gets a polish
The car was foamed as a prewash, clayd and rinsed. Washed by hand and then MF towel dried and put in the garage to inspect the paint. makes for grim viewing, these are typical of the paint defects all over the car.

The car was rotary poloished with Menzerna PF2500 and SF 4000 then topped off with collinite 476s for winter durability that wax is hard to beat. Most of the heavy duty paint defects were improved although some refinment will be carried out again in the spring no doubt.
