Can I get that in halfords?johnny wrote:Is the paint rough to touch? It looks like it was badly rattle canned in its life and might be the reason the tcut didn't work
If your buying, buy some g3 cutting compound and a good polish like auto gym srp
T cut is too harsh tbh the g3 compound is much better and restoring paint

Re: Getting the red back red
I just spotted a colour coded scuttle. So suspect rattle canned in the past. On the vin plate what is the paint code?
