Paint Fade ??

[Cruizin GT]

Ok, I`ve tried everything I can think of. But I can`t seem to get the color of the trunk lid to come back to it`s original color like the bumper. Any ideas, or is the color just fading, and the only hope is repaint. :dontknow:

Need pics... sounds like its just oxidation which can be fixed with a good polish or light compound... maybe even a good all in one wax...

I posted a pic. Is it not working ?

Maybe this will work better.

I dont think you are going to get it back to the color it was because the sun fades the pigment in the paint that is what gives it that pink look my car was the same color and did the same thing so I had to repaint mine.

Its never gonna match perfect... Thats normal on mustangs, not sure why... I think it may have something to do with one surface being metal the other polyurethane...

That`s what I thought. :BangHead: Just have to deal with it for now.

My laser red paint is almost pink in some spots... I tried compounding/polishing the isht out of it with a conjunction of clay and heavy foam cutting pads...

Nothing....

I think this Laser Red Tri Coat paint is just prone to fading over time...

I'm still gonna try to see if I can get a little color back this summer, when I get a new arsenal of wool pads and polishing products...
