well ive painted my new arches and they looking good in henly blue thing is they look a lot brighter than the colour of the car
i have an idea on how am goint to sort this ..so anyone have any extra tips for making the existing paint shine nice and bright

[mini_lad_1990]

the best way is to either take it to a body shop and get them to do a polishing on the car the finish is deffently worth it

or you could get all the products and give it a bash youself they aint cheap either mate

hope that help

cheers

How about using the guide to restoring paint in the sticky section.

If you do not want to use wet and dry then at least use auto glym restoring polish / g3 compound etc with a machine polisher and the results will be fantastic. If you are not confident or you are worried about burning your paint then try on an old panel or someone you dont likes car. it is easy to do very well but kinda easy to *male chicken* up if you forget your leaning on the same spot.

i did it to my cooper and she shizzles !!!

good luck


make sure you wash ehr first , and clean off any gritty C**p or that will get on your polisher and scratch like hell
