i've used Meguirs Gold Class before,still have some actually.
worked good when the car had paint..
the paint on my car is gone..
believe me..i know..
i blame it intirely on the fact that she doesn't get a break from the sun...
used to shine great but time has taken it's toll..
tried buffing but it just takes whats left of the paint off..
only thing to do is repaint her but i'm afraid i dont have the extra cash to do that..
i try to wax it anyways but the paint is so rough now that the wax dries in the pores and turns the car white..thus the white streaks in the paint..
i've been experimenting on the hood and found that if i use a real fine sand paper on it that it smooths it out real nice..
bad thing about the sandpaper is that it takes alot of the paint off with it.
i've actually got it down to the bare metal in a few spots.
had to use a can of spray paint on it just to cover the metal with something.
way i figure it 1 day i will have my wish and she'll be back to factory maroon or garnet red..for now i'll just live with it the way it is.
It's all fixable and for a car to still look that good with such a bad paint job says something about the car..
she's falling apart before my very eyes..
about ready to tear all that gray molding off the car.
no it's not paint,it's actual rubber like moulding glued to the sides of car.
It's more of a yellow/brown now and no longer soft..it's hard like plastic. i've reglued it back on in a few spots..
anyone know where i can get that..would like to replace it 1 day also..
