Revive is a blackening trim dressing. It gives the perfect look but won't run down your paintwork like the oil/silicone based dressings do.
C4 is a semi-permenant solution. It gives the perfect look and will last at least 1 year+ if prepped and applied correctly.
Some people try to paint...
It just attracts police and looks unclassy tbf.
If I were you you I'd think twice about painting. Paint will chip.
Check out the proper trim dressings above, looks classy and much cheaper than a spray job.
Looks like a tidy motor otherwise. PH1s look better and better with age IMO.
It must be a water hardness issue (I'm sure you've played with different concentrations) because I really can't understand why anyone wouldn't get on with BTBM, its literally a perfect shampoo for me.

I'm glad to hear your opinion on the mini because if my commute increased from 2miles its the kind of car I'd want.
It also firmly confirms my...
Not not at all.

I usually apply by hand. It's got great cleaning abilities (good for 16yr old stone chipped paint) and is a solid base for LSP.
In my experience it also enhances flake pop.
I'll post what I achieve tomorrow. I planned to spend the night on it but tripped and fell onto a bottle of Jamesons.

Will do, its getting some respray work done over winter if the worst happens lol.
I think it was mostly the 16year old hazy unpolished surface on the clear coat which makes a big difference on the 50/50.
I just threw the rotary over a section of bonnet on the MX5, PO85 on a Scholl finishing pad for about 30 seconds and its almost fully corrected. Soft paint ftw!
