Bringing BG paintwork back to life



  Mk5 Golf GTI
Hi Guys,
Looking for a recommendation on how to bring my paintwork but to its former glory. I have decent cleaning experience and have the products I know and love having had new cars before but have never worked on an older car trying to restore the paintwork.

Looking for a recommendation for clay bars and machine polishers etc for restoration and any other tips you have to get paintwork back up to standard again.

Clay bar I'd recommend Bilt Hamber Auto Clay. Theres 3 different grades depending on how bad the contamination is on your paint. Beginner machine polisher I'd suggest the Das 6 pro dual action polisher with the chemical guys hex logic pads and youd also want the standard 5 inch backing plate and 3 inch backing plate. I'd recommend watching Forensic Detailing Channel on YouTube. He has a video on there about machine polishing for beginners, well worth a watch.
