My 2006 JDM Hawkeye STi (Picture heavy)

Picked this up from Peter A on Sunday and yesterday was the first chance I had to give it a going over with my detailing products.
It had been well looked after by It's previous owner but when I get a car new to me I like to start from scratch and give it a full going over. It took getting on for 6 hours but I think it looks the part now.
Washed with Werkstat auto body wash, using a Dooka woolie wash pad and the two bucket method.
Iron Xed (which I still think STINKS) then rinsed well.
Clayed with Dodo Juice Supernatural Clay & Born to be Slippy Lube. (as usual a surprising amount of contaminates were pulled out of the paint)
Polished with Menzerna Power Finish (PO203S) using a German Applicator pad
Rinsed off and dried with a Dodo Juice Orange Plush - Microfibre Car Drying Towel.
I was then kind of caught in two minds as to what to use on the now clean paintwork. I've got the entire Werkstat Acrylic kit which I used to great effect on my Championship White Civic Type R. I was unsure how this would of worked with the WR Blue paintwork. I've also got a good selection of different waxes. Dodo Juice Supernatural, Dodo Juice Bouncer, Zymol Glasur, Zymol Concours & Swissvax Best of Show to name a few![Lol1](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/lol1.gif)
However I was waiting for a excuse to use the Finish Kare #1000P which I purchased a few weeks back. I applied a think coat with a dampened foam applicator pad and left for 20-30 minutes for it to cure. It was then removed with a large microfibre. I repeated a second coat to ensure complete coverage. Went on nice and easy, although it was a bit tough to completely remove. The results were really nice and slick looking with hopefully great durability over the winter months.
I was going to layer FinishKare #425 - Ultra Slick Polywipe over the top but having ordered it last week it's still to show up
Wheels were also sealed with 1000P and the tyres blackened with a Turtle wax spray on sealant that a mate of mine living in the states sent me. Sprays on and leaves a nice wet looking tyre without looking to over the top.
Exhaust backbox was cleaned and polished with Auto Glym Metal polish.
Think she comes up pretty well.![Thumb](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/thumb.gif)
