bring old paint back to life?

What is the best product at bringing the shine out of old cart paint?
Thanks,
Eric

 

buff it out and wax it.

 

zymol cleaner wax is my fav. it's a bit pricey but well worth it. removes all the oxydation and leaves a killer shine.

 

if you have pits and scratchs and its not in very good shape i have use color tinted wax, it come in a bunch of different colors and you can get somewhere close i`m sure, it fills in the pits and scratchs, and it doesnt leave white wax behind, i did my dads 55 black mec once and it looked like i just painted it, from 50ft away..lol the tiniting can make it a streaky so you may have to do it a few times, wax on wax off, wax on wax off

 

Elbow grease ?????









If you've got a good amount of paint left, any good quality rubbing compound will work, after the compound, go to a polish, then a good waxing.

 

believe it or not.I've brought back old paint jobs with liquid soft-scrub.wash it with soft-scrub first.it acts like a rubbing compound but wont scratch it.it also takes off those rust spots that form on top of the paint sometimes.then you can used a polishing compound and wax.believe me,it will save you a lot of time.try it.

 

I've had great success with a product from The Wax Shop called Safecut. It's a chemical polish rather than abrasive.You apply it and let it dry,then wipe it off.Then wax it. Especially good on dark colours.
