Did you polish by hand or a machine?
Been contemplating it, have had a random orbital unit for many years, but just scared of damaging the paint.

If you do enjoy waxing by hand, the dodo juice purple haze smells nice and comes up really well. But being a lighter blue (the ss is impulse), might be ideal to go another variant?
Is a carnuba wax too.

Do like that colour, really sparkles in the sun.

By hand.....Mr Miagi style.

I use the rotary on mine when I polish and wax. The only issue is the wax does clog the pad. Just go easy and you won't rub through or remove clear. Doesn't seem to save a lot of time though, still really need to allow a full day.

Went over the interior early this morning coz gonna be 38c today.....it was 21c when I started at 6am and 25c when I finished at 8am.

Bowden's Agent Orange followed by Vinyl Care on all hard plastics.

Duragloss Leather Shampoo followed by Leather Conditioner on all leather surfaces.

The Shampoo appears to have done a good job on removing the shine from the steering wheel.
