Audi 80 B4 Paint / Lacquer Question

TheTwelveQuidKid · 11-12-12, 03:39 AM

I've seen a red one of these cars which I'm considering. But it's going pink, and I couldn't remember if they can be polished to restore the correct colour, or if they have a base coat with lacquer on top which would prevent this.
It's an L reg car, non metallic by the way

Have a look at my diesel dog thread, they polish up really well, two passes of t-cut, one of Autoglym paint renovator and a lot of elbow grease!

Mine is laser red now but was shrimp pink when I got it :-)
