Just recently the paint on this car is fading like hell, it has just happened in the last 2 months or so. The car has been kept in a garage most of the time but now its fading and I dont think it's age either. On a nice day you can see the paint looks like someone scrubbed it with a wire brush, its pretty damn ugly. But in the rain the car almost looks silver which is pretty cool but the fading paint is ugly. Is there any products or something that can be used on the car to prevent it from getting any worse? or anything that can make it disappear or make it look better? As you can see it looks like some idiot decided to sand the hood, but nope, just the paint fading

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

1. Get a clearer pic
2. How much did you pay for the job
3. Go back to the people that painted your vehicle and tell them.

2. Nothing
3. The colour is OEM
and a new paintjob is a bit too expensive
Would waxing it protect it?

Crap I cant read. Looks like you got a big spot on your hood too. Looks like your best bet is to repaint the whole car but a clearer pic will help X 100000.

hmmm, id say from the way you described the scratches that someone at some point had it buffed and polished and they didnt know what theywere doing. clearcoat burn could be from massive sun exposure. at this point you'd be better off sanding off the rest of the crap and at least primering it to protect the metal from anything worse. at least until you can repaint. nothing chemically is gonna help you much now.
