Paint Needs Rejuvination

[sunrisediva]

I'm restoring a 1973 Mercedes 450SL. The paint has become thin and almost invisible in places. Have heard Meguiars has a product that is tinted to the paint color and will mask the defective paint until I am able to repaint. Any idea?

Sorry, there is no such product

Is the paint black? There products that are specifically made for black paint. It is a dyed wax that fills in the scrathes and hides them. I dont think it will douches for the thin areas but may help a little everywhere else.

I think you mean "do much" and not "douches".

There are products out there that will help. For instance Poorboys Black Hole is a Glaze which is very filler heavy, I think this is probably what your referring to.

Another rated filler heavy product is Super Resin Polish by Autoglym.

I think these two are possibly what your searching for.

There are colored waxes out there , but I dont think that they will work on thin paint.
