MilSport Impreza STI V3 Pt2
Hi Alex, Just had to drop you a quick line to say "wow". As you know, over the years I have been using an awful lot of the products you sell to keep my car looking as good as she possibly can but, and this is a big BUT, she has never looked the way she does today. The reflections you see on the attached images were all obtained by hand, none of that nancy boy electric mopping for me, although I think I will have to order one as I am now absolutely knackered. Firstly, just a quick wash and then a going over with a clay bar. Secondly, a going over with your new, own brand, Serious Performance paint cleaner. Thirdly, another trip all around the car but using your own brand Serious Performance polymer sealant and lastly a coat of my very favourite carnauba wax, P21S. All of the above products are so easy to use, both putting on and removing although I would follow the instructions on the polymer sealant very closely and apply sparingly, I got a bit carried away with the quantities on the first panel I did but it was still not a major problem to remove. On the subsequent panels it was a doddle. Once again mate, thanks for all the advice and great service you have always given, to make a Silver car look and shine the way mine now does could only ever be achieved using the best products from the best car detailing supply company in existence Ralph
