Last week I got the chance to detail my buddies Subaru Forester. He called me over a week prior and asked if it could be saved, to which I told him, yes. But I wasn't sure how much so.

This thing was in bad shape, so I'll let the pictures below do all the talking for me!

Some decon pictures:

Roof, NASTY SCRATCH was not removable without sacrificing integrity of the clear coat:

Thanks for looking, hope you enjoyed it!
 
Does he park that thing beside a railroad everyday? I bet you used an entire bottle of iron x.
Amazing transformation as well as documentation.
 
Holy crap that's a lot of contamination. Nice work, the finished product looks great.
Yeah, definitely surprised me. But the K a lot!

I'm thinking there was some heavy contamination in the air or area this used be at in Japan before it was shipped to Canada.

That or even when it was sitting at auction/waiting to be shipped who know.

Thanks a lot though!
Awesome transformation! Good job!
Thank you!
Is it a manual? Just noticed it's rhd.. Nice
Sadly automatic. :(
Holy contamination Batman! That's bad!

Beautiful work! That thing looks incredible now!
