So it looks like i will be picking up my Chimaera from Surface and Design on Friday.
I bit the bullet and dug deep for a full respray.

Ive never been one to hide my car away from bad weather and certainly never been the type to making the finish a priority. However i want to keep the paintwork gleaming for a while at least.

I need tips on looking after fresh paint. No comments on staying away from dry stone walls please.
Recommendations on washing/polishing/waxing products and techniques required.

I'm sure that the lads who painted it will tell you all that you need to know. Just ask them.

In the Aston Martin section there is a sticky about cleaning with a link to the following thread.

Somewhere like www.DetailingWorld.co.uk has lots of guides to keeping your P&J looking good, it all depends on how far you want to go.

Would recommend going for a decent nano sealant on the paint, makes it much easier to keep clean.

Products wise it depends what you want to pay as some stuff costs silly money, detailing world gives a lot of info and feedback on products.
