Cleaned.

Well, the paint-match SUCKED. Thanks bodyshop!
But, if there's anything I've learned from this project so far, it's that the ingredients to success are experience, hard-work, patience, and doing everything your fother-mucking self!

So, I had to make the old paint match the new. Quite a challenge with 9yr old paint. The process:

-Washed the whole car with a bucket of water + washing up liquid and a whole bunch of elbow grease!
-Clay-bar'd the car to stop myself from "rubbing-in" any crap into the paintwork.
-Cut the paintwork back with Farecla G3 cutting liquid.
-T-Cut the car with good old carplan T-Cut polish.
-Waxed the whole car with Carnauba wax.

I'll post up a side-by-side before and after later. But these pics show the shiny factor.
