Looking good, but can I suggest you have a read of THIS. Jeffs Werkstat Acrylic products seem to give amazing results on the lighter colours.

Looks good - to be hoped theres no pigeons living in the vasinity!!

Ours has probably seen 6 hours of cleaning from new - Andy would think i'd really lost the plot if i was washing it for that long

Although i dont think he'd complain if i did!
