The red is very prone to fading however I've been told that as long as I wax is every few months it should stop the UV fade so only time will tell I guess!

I wash my Merc & Kangoo twice every year whether they need it or not.
The Jimny will probably get the same treatment when it's back on the road.

I'm at that age now that I don't want to risk dying whilst washing a vehicle outside. :laugh:

Thanks! Single stage red paint is awesome to work on, very easy to bring the finish back. Haha I didnt think of that!! The jimny came with a bible in the back too, left that in there for luck!

Hee, Hee. I bought an old Mitsubishi off a priest and the CO has kept all the stuff that came with it. She's not at all impressed whenever I sing that old C&W song as we drive it up to the farm.

I keep mine clean. Polish it every few months and wash it at least every other weekend

Not sure what polish you use but it doesn't look like it works too well - it's made your Jimny go all monotone!!!!!!

Quick blast at the petrol station after playing in the mud, then I wash it daily as it rains. All the battle scars tell a story and give the jimny character. Didn't even wash it for the photoshoot.
