Hello

Been spending the last few months reading and educating myself. Its a joy to find out the cause of all my swirls and such I caused, but hey the PC I just received and additional products on the way should be the start of improving my detailing ways (as well as my cars).

I own a 2000 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS which is Blue Ridge Pearl and a 2002 Subaru Legacy GT which is Silver Stone Metallic (its my wifes car)

PS - This is also to test my forum posting ability. The last few replies don't appear to have shown up.

Edit - Added wife's car color

Re: Hello

Oh I will. I live in Portland, OR and the cars both have to live outside as I don't have a garage they will fit in (my house was built in 1927 and I could get the car in the garage, I just couldn't open a door to get out). The weathers, two walnut trees in the front have been mean as well as my my un-educated cleaning hasn't helped so the paint isn't in the best shape. Which is why I started doing research and wanting to improve what I was doing. I have been using meg products by hand, but the towels and mits I have been using as well as my lack of technique which has gotten my cars in the shape they are in.

I am going to take some photos and post them (before and after). Hopefully I can get suggestions and such to help me in improve. I am a little nervous about using the PC for the first time, knowing the Subie paint isn't the best. I don't have a lot of options to practice on so it probably going to have to be my wifes legacy.

Re: Hello

Ok I can't post in any forum except this one. Anyone know why? What do I need to do to post in the other forums?
