Paintwork gone cloudy
Hi peeps
Having a major nightmare with the paintwork on my Scooby, basically its mica black with red flecks in it, now i know nothing about polishes and products for cleaning my knowledge goes as far as Autoglm stuff and thats it.
Ive polished the car using my bosses polish and now paintwork on car has gone all cloudy, i carnt see any of the mettallic red flecks in it and paintwork has gone patchy, looks an absolute cock!
Valeter told me to dilute some TFR on it it takes everything off ect ect, ive then polished it again in Autoglym and it still looks awful
Will a decent machine buff bring the paint back up to where it was before, or is there an easier way??
Paintwork looks like water marks on it?
Any tips guys?
