Re: [FWDLK] 48 year old paint

[Dave Stragand <dave.stragand@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use a combination (50/50) of Turtle Wax 'Color Back' and Meguiar's
show car glaze (a very light abrasive).  I use a foam pad at 1000 RPM
and so far have had great results with a variety of old finishes.

The Color Back is a chemical deoxidizer and the Meguiars removes the
dirt and haze.

It loads the pad a lot, but I just wash it out in hot soapy water, spin
it dry for a minute, and apply the mix again from an old squeezy bottle.

Subject: [FWDLK] 48 year old paint

Hi All,

The paint on my 58 Fireflite is original to the car.  It's heavily
oxidized. 
I'd like to buff-out a section to see if I can get a close sample of the

original color. Does anyone have a preferred product and/or process for 
bringing oxidized
paint back to life?  I plan to use an orbital buffer, but I'd like to
know 
if there is a "best" product to achieve maximum results. Also, if anyone
has 
any tips for the "process", please tell!
