2003 SAAB 9-5 Sport Wagon ~ Graphite Green

[W.S.]

Intro: This car is a little over four years old. It has been owned by my father the entire time. The car has never seen a garage, 24/7 outside, under a tree. When I started the car was covered in sap and leaves. Under that was a very screatched finish. My father insists on washing with one bucket (for the body) and a "car was" brush. It looked about as bad as going though the swirl-o-matic for four years.



I got together with another member (mbw163) for this one.

No plastic dressing?



Nice reflections.

 

[W.S.]

We did dress the plastic, but the car sat outside last nights, so the dressing seemed to disappear. It was only cheap armour all stuff. The tires and wells were done with Meg's hot tire (?) in an aerosol can, stays better.
