Nathan94 Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 (edited) There's a nasty square pinkish patch on my bonnet where it looks like the paint has burnt from when I had L plates on and it is really making the car look a bit crap.Is there any ways to remove it or make it less noticeable? I was thinking of giving a good clean, dry with microfibree cloth, T Cut and then wax?Any help is really appreciated Edited December 1, 2012 by Nathan94 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 Yep, that would be a good start.There are probably better paint restorers out there than T-Cut, so if you are about to purchase a "bottle" you may be better getting one of those.

TArosa Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 Try autoglym polish, bout £4 and its alrite stuff does the job to blend discoloured panels 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmetal Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 Auto Glym paint renovator is pretty good imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan94 Posted December 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 I've got T-Cut already from my Mum's car, but if there is a better alternative that isn't as aggressive and will do the same job I'm all up for trying it!So one of the better products is Auto Glym? And if I do this once and keep waxing it on a monthly basis, it shouldn't come back?Would it be advisable to go over the car with it to remove all the scratches and marks and make it shiny red again?

Deadmetal Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 If you go over the car with something like tcut or paint renovator, you'll need to follow it up with an actual polish to make the car shiny again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want the paint to look bright red again, it's not exactly all dull, but it could be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1cr08472 Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 Go to a local car dealer talk to the valeters, ask them if they will machine polish your car as a govey. Don't ask the car dealer just go straight to the valeters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do it properly and it won't be any worse than it currently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
