How about fine scratches and swirl marks?

[GTOger]

Being that the car is 23 years old and has been driven as a "real car" (not a fully functioning 1:1 scale model), we've accumulated our share of little scratches, swirls and the like.

The shine is fine. Nothing is (visibly) faded and the clear coat is well intact.

I've seen / heard about the color-matching polishes and so forth, but never used one.

So now... let your wisdom flow forth upon me.

Get yourself a Porter-Cable buffer, some Adams products and have at it!

Like Doug said.

For small chips, "Dr. Color Chip" - better than touch up paint.

I like the nano technology of the Zaino stuff, so PC Fusion and buffer, coupled with a pitch dark garage and a light bulb to check the finish for swirls, etc, worked good, and didn't require more than an afternoon's worth of effort (on mine). YMMV.



The Porter Cable 7424 orbital buffer makes it almost impossible to burn the paint or an edge, as doe the very gentle PC Fusion stuff from Zaino.

Have any of your ever tried Collonite Car Wax ? . A friend of mine uses it and he said a house fly slid off the car as it was that slippery . I used it on my 2003 Kawaksi Concours . Rode in the rain recently and the rain drops were barely visible on my gas tank . Can't wait to get a ZR1 next spring and try this wax on it .
