  • help with restoring paint!

    I have an old red acura that has lived its whole life in the Arizona sun. I can not afford to get a new paint job quite yet. I really need suggestions on how to make the paint look its best and to keep it that way.

    Thankyou!

    Wel, I am sure we can help. Here are a couple of the basic threads you will want to read, and be sure to understand, so you get the whole process.

    I assume you are working by hand for now?

    If you are also short on time, or just as another good product to have, ColorX is a great product to have. ColorX topped with #21 Synthetic Sealant is my favorite quick combo for a daily driver.

    Here is a thread of ColorX in action.
