After washing with Dodo Juice BTBM and a Sonus lambswool mitt, I hit it with Iron X. I couldn't really see it working on the black paint, but you could certainly see it working on the wheels

Another rinse and a clay. This was from the near side rear panel

Thanks guys. I wanted to include a step for Black Hole in there, but the weather was turning, so I went straight from the Rejuvenate to the lsp.

Looks OK though. Now I just need to get out and take some proper photos :)
