Yes you are right. Will make some new pics soon. First will need to wash the car for it because the car is unbelievably dirty at the moment. I-can-almost-no-longer-read-the-licence-plate kind of dirty.... On friday i will go on skiing holiday with the car and i plan the wash it after the holiday. After that will surely post some updated pics.

Wow looks so good when all cleaned up!

Which coating did you use?

Wish I knew how to do a paint correction - would love to have a go myself

Miyabi and ISM - best coating I've had so far. Very glossy and hydrophobic, almost 5 months on
