Question

Just picked up a new run about. Although the bodywork is good, it's spent the last 13 years parked outside, fighting against all the elements, which have dulled the paint.

Is T-Cut still the best, or has anyone got any other suggestions.

Cheers,

Ed

Any fine rubbing compound will do.......

Rub it into the paint but make sure you dont leave it to dry otherwise you will have to T-cut it back off again......then polish it afterwards in circular motions......should come up like new

I found T-cut to work great on faded red cars but not so good on light colours (silver especially). Dark cars seem to show enough improvement with just polish (I use Mer or turtlewax myself)
