    Sprayed with AS tardis, left to dwell then wiped and rinsed once again.

    Inspection of the paint under the lights didnt look drastic at all so hand job was in order ( Oi! steady on you at the back :shock: )

    Cleanser of the day was a product im test running for a manufacturer right now so cleansed with product A.
    The finish was looking great after a simple cleanse with this new product, workaility was the same as that of swissvax cleaner fluid andcleansed the paint really well.
    One halogen decided to pack up :oops:
    [​IMG]
    The finish looked a damn site more crisper imo.

    Glass cleaned with AS glass clear and waffle towel.
    What exterior trim there was was dressed with poorboys world trim restorer.
    Due to the silvery lovliness I opted for a sealant in the guise of finish kare fk1000p:
