Haven`t posted for awhile, has anyone else had difficulty with Subaru paint? I always thought they were one of the softer ones out there.. Even Hi Temp XC on a LC orange VC pad had difficulty with this paint.



Wash

Clay

HTXC via rotary on LC orange pad

HTXC / OP 50/50 split via rotary on LC white pad

Great job on those swirls! Despite the less than ideal lighting, the paint looks very clear and wet. :)

Yeah, thats one thing I hate about winter as well, how it gets dark at 4-5pm..

Great job! All I know is that on my STI I can remove 85% swirls with a finishing pad.

Is that yours????



nice to see another baja on the boards..



My take on subaru paint..



if kept nice.. it works like a dream.



if let go it`s hard to bring back. (i can`t get some of the mirco scratches out of my hood)



it`s hard but fragile if you don`t keep wax/sealent on it the paint will chip like anything.

The painted cleaned up really well. Can`t beat a black car.
