Best option for New Blue WRX

[jshillin]

OK, I`m picking up my new `08 WRX Sedan this Friday off of the showroom floor!! I`m excited. This will be my first new car.

OK, I want to know out of the products I have what would be best to put on the nice bright blue, World Rally Blue Pearl. I need something that looks good and will stand up to a PA/WV winter. I`ll mostly be driving the ranger during the winter, unfortunately the car will sit outside.



Here`s the car, I took a camera phone pic while I was in the showroom.

Jason, congratulation on your new ride, if it was me i would go with the Zaino products that you have or use Collinite 845, don`t forget to prep your new car. Bet it`s going to pop like crazy! Awesome WRX............:clap:

I just plan to clay and either 106ff or AIO it, might even try out the Prime Acrylic... Then top that with a sealant or wax. Just not sure which one yet, I haven`t had the pleasure to use anything on a blue car yet. Just gotta get it done before it gets real cold.

I would clay them maybe use ZAIO then maybe top it with a sealant for the winter. Enjoy it and when your done with the finish how bout some pic`s of it. I love that blue color and i know you would too! Enjoy.........:usa

You`ll have all spring and summer next year to fart around with different waxes. Winter is upon us so I would put something durable on it to start

[jshillin]

I pick it up Friday morning just before I see the endodontist to fix a screwed up root canal and a crown... I`m hoping I feel well enough Friday to get on it, but realistically, I won`t touch it until Saturday.

The plan it to clay it, then I`m torn between 106ff or Prime Acrylic, followed by Danase Wet Glaze and Collinite 845. Could also do Prime Acrylic, AJT, then wait a week and apply 845... Not sure. I could always go the ZAINO route...

Congrats on the new WRX. When I had my WRB WRX I used KAIO topped with 4*UPP. I think it looked pretty good.

Collinite 845 has served me well through winter as a topper on my Atlantic Blue 05 Subaru Legacy wgn.



If you drive a lot of highway you might want to consider a clear bra up front. This Suby paint chips like crazy.

[jshillin]

I was thinking about a clear bra, but haven`t actually saw a car with one on it, so I`m not sure about it. I did end up using 845 as my topper and have 900 miles on it now. It`s a blast to drive!!



Here it is right after I cleaned it up and removed the dealer installed swirls. I made a post for it on the click & brag.

I have since added a second coat of 845 and a used fk425 a couple times, it looks even better!!!
