Suburu STI

[imported_smprince1]

Today's job was a blue Suburu STI. Owner lives in an apartment complex and he suspects an angry neighbor keyed his door panel. The scratch was too deep to completely remove, it's still there and I did my best to knock off the edges to make it less noticable.



Wash with CG CWC via foam gun

Much better! You can hardly see it now. I bet the owner is delighted.

Awesome job with that scratch! Well done :2thumbs:

Thanks ... the scratch is certainly still there and not fully removed. Knocking the edges off hopefully makes it sufficiently less noticeable.

Very nice work. So did you use the Megs to clean up the seats too? They look good for no extraction!

What was your process to get that wierd spot off the back seat, it looks like it was never there.



I love how that color/car cleans up, great job!

Thanks. I used Megs APC, lightly scrubbed with a soft nylon brush, then extracted with plain hot water.

Thanks. I think it was either a water stain or maybe a drink spill. It was not set into the fabric too deeply.

Great job on this color. I love these cars to death but could never buy one with a blue carpet interior .

Don't you just love working on the subaru paint.. you can pretty much correct the paint with m205 and a MF towel it's so soft! I love the paint on those cars!
