Roy Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 hi guys - just a quick question. i have noticed with the abundance of sunshine that the paintwork on the car is looking a bit faded and old. prime areas are the top of the roof, bonnet and near the gas filler thingy. there are a few minor dings and scratches on as well and was wondering what you gents recommend as the items to use to get rid of the scratches and bring back the shine overall. TIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeT Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 it might be worth getting dude or another bodyshop tp run there mop over it. i was quoted £35 to have it done on my old beemer from a local place so it wont break the bank. be careful not to press too hard on those grommets in your tailgate though:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Terry S Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Roy, when you get the turbo's done there is a guy Colin in the same yard, get him to Mop it for you. Otherwise get your lazy arse down to Dudes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
