Rat look

[stanc3w0rks]

Im just looking for tips and ideas for rat looking the corsa.

First thing i need to know, is there any way of making red paint fade quickly as i dont get much sun lol. It has been tcuted and polished not too long ago and isnt showing any signs of fading. Thanks for reading.

You could get some 1500 wet and dry and lightly sand the clear coat to give it a frosty look

Use scratch remover its more abrasive than tcut and it will take paint the more u rub it

After a long look on the internet someone has said that white spirits made their paint fade. So i will try that as its easiest and then will try your ways guys cheers

Couldnr you t cut and not laquer or polish? Then the paint would be raw and fade fast

Flame red wasn't lacquered so using tcut or scratch remover will only refresh the paint

It will faded to pink on its own, just give it time

T-cut takes a thin layer of paint off, it's like wet sanding with 2000 grit, so it'll take longer for it to fade since it's fresh paint

So don't wax or polish it but still wash it, just don't use any shampoos with carabuna in it

I'll just take the dirt off with water and a brush or something. Its mostly just dust that covers my car from the gravel tbh
