Default STi RA spring spruce Up

Finally some decent weather so time to get the RA sorted for the warmer months. Had a good few hours so it was out with clay bar to get all that winter contamination out of the paintwork.

First washed with Autoglym shampoo then dried with MF towel. Clayed with a megs claybar and quick detailer. Then got the SRP out as it will get a proper polish later on in the year and I find it great for a quick once over and it does a fair job of filling some of the many swirls in my paintwork. Quick rinse off to get rid of the residue from the SRP and then waxed. Wheels and tyres also washed and then dressed with AG instant tyre dressing.

Quite pleased with the results but will need some correction later in the year to get it where I want it as the paint work is in a sorry state at the moment.

The pics;

Looking good

If it wasn't for the chalky residue, the SRP would be a decent enough product to use more often Things have moved on sooooooo much now though
