Is there anything I can do or any products that would really help my car look good without getting a paint job? I have a '94 gsr and the paint is really faded on the hood, front bumper, rear bumper, side mirrors, and wing. I have tried Meguiar's Gold Class (I think that's what it's called) carwax but I still didn't get any real lasting results. Any help?

 

you're going to need an entire line-up of products:

-claybar
-cleaner wax/polish
-swirl mark remover
-clear coat protectant
-sealant polish
-carnauba wax

 

I find that 80 grit sandpaper tends to work out real well to bring the shine back out. The trick is that you have to use a wet sanding method where you run water over the car as you sand to keep the friction down.

 

:werd: Follow these directions to the "T" and you will have the results desired.

 

I'd recommend getting a detailing manual.. and get a faded painted panal from a junk yard to practice on.

 

just pay the 100-200$ or what ever it cost to get it professionally detailed.

might be a lot. but your gonna spend at least $50+ on all the stuff lawrence listed, plus time and effort.

BTW> just waxed the GFs jetta. ya. sweating my ass off. they are too big. i can bust the crx out in like 10 mins. lol

 

Yes but if he pays the $50 and gets all the stuff he gets the knowledg of how to do it plus he can re-use the stuff he bought to detail it again and again.

 

ya. true. olong: <--- what does thios even mean anyways. LOL
