how to shine door

[03dynamique]

i had my front drivers door mended last year (wind caught it and blew it into the corner of my house) and obviously they have re-sprayed it. It isnt as shiny as the rest of the car so I have tried different polishes but just cant get it to match the rest of the car. Does anyone know of anything I can use to get the shine back?

Thanks

sounds like the laquer has sunk. no polish willhelp really mate. I would take it back to get em to either flat it and then buff it (oo er missus) or re- laquer it. Dont waste your time with polish.

thanks, but what do you mean by flat it?

Think Im having this problem except it was both doors that got scratch and needed repainting.

they use a very fine grade wet n dry paper to take the sheen off the surface, use a compound to restore the shine using an elctric buffing tool.
