Fading paint...=( - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

The paint on my Z is gettng bad. The hood is getting pretty oxidized. I'm soliciting options to getting it repainted. If I buff it for a while it may come out. I'm going to give it a shot when I get it home and the weather clears up.

I was at my Dad's the other day and he spilled WD-40 on the hood. Funny thing is where he spilled the shine came back. I washed it with Dawn and got it all out but he told me some linseed oil would bring the luster back. Linseed oil, wash, and wax. I dunno...makes me nervous but the WD-40 sure made it look deep again until I stripped it off.
