1995 Subaru Impreza

Here's a few before/after pics from a friends car I did a few weekends ago. He bought it used about a year ago, and he has never washed it himself (wife's commuter/beater car). Turtle Wax Trim Restorer was new for me and trialed on this car. He was OK with this. I've used everything else before. Forgive my lack of photos, 1. I'm a bad photographer, 2. had nightmare time with this car. My backing pad for my PC broke saturday and local shop not open on weekends so car had to sit 1/2 saturday and all day sunday. Also, my 2 year old twin "helpers" were no really much help LOL. Whatever, car came out better than I thought, although he was not so impressed. He thought it was nice, but he really wants me to do his 2005 MB AMG E55 with white ceramiclear. Not in such a hurry to tackle that.

Two bucket wash
Meguiar's DUB wheel cleaner
Turtle Wax Bug and Tar
Mother's claybar on the entire car
LC CCS orange with PB SSR3
LC CCS white with PB Meg's 205 (SSR1 went bad)
2 coats of Collinite 845
BlackMagic Matte Tire Finish
Turtle Wax Trim Restorer

Thanks. I used meg's 205 on a terry pad. About a minute. Then wiped off and put 845 on. I was very pleased with results. Picture doesn't do justice.

I don't know. Honestly don't think he really cared. His wife wanted it painted, and I think this was a hold off for that. Have to wait till I see her for her reaction. I also don't think he know amount of work involved. Especially outdoors with twin two year olds running around. Lol. I did have two tents but still, its hot out !

Great job man! Would love to have one of those RS in a 2 door for a commuter.

It was actually a fun little car to drive. I guess cause it is light weight compared to todays airbag/electronics laden cars. Dont know what the hp is for it, but it was peppy and tossable.
