    I've found a good combo to work with is to clean the car very thoroughly then use Meg's #7 Show Car Polish on one body panel at a time, then do a coat of NXT.

    Wait a day and then put another coat of NXT on.

    That looks good!

    And also of course the stars of the constellation Pleiades.

    The brightest star of that constellation is Alcyone, the JDM model name of the XT, XT6, and SVX.

    I cleaned my car yesterday, spent about 5 hours on it, Washed, Claybarred, and waxed. It looks great. I thought I had dead bugs and sap and stuff so got a Claybar. Start using it in the areas and the stuff just wouldn't come off. After closer inspection it turns out to be little paint chips. Damn Subaru paint.

    hey jason!

    i have a few chips also i touch them up every few weeks with the subaru pen/brush applicator. :cool: i have a nasty scratch on the fender where a piece of rubber a truck in front of me threw up but you cannot see if that good with the touchup paint over it now.
