Paint care advice.

Featured Replies

Hi guys I recently aquired a nice 240z but I didn't notice that until after I bought it that there were one or two small things in the paint work that frustrate me. It's typical until you own it you don't notice the small things.

Anyway the problem is the bonnet mainly. It has faded a bit in the sun as Red Paint will. It's nothing big but the rest of the car is really quite red even the roof. I polished it recently and it made it less noticeable (not noticable to the untrained eye). I was considering a cut n' polish but it strips a layer of paint and I feel that it will just start to fade again later. (I've had 3 red cars before). There's also some water marks(little white marks) in the paint in odd spots the bonnet and roof mainly. I wanna know how I should deal with these aswell polishing didn't get them out.

I was thinking of just getting the bonnet a light respray as the rest of the car is still very red and I don't think it would look uneven.

Anyway ideas guys please :classic: I will provide pics soon in the day light for now check my gallery I think it has a pic of my car.
