my paint work :-(

[nozza89]

it is a state, the person who owned it before me has not taken very much care of it and is covered in swirl marks, minor scratchs and stone chips. i was wondering if anyone can recomend anything i can do to try and save the paint and help make it look any better
thanks

A good polish should improve things!

Chips will need touching up and sanding back using some wet and dry, then a good polish to sort out the other defects.

Working by hand ?

i always clean the car by hand but it looks like its been through a few car washes in its life!

Working by hand you may struggle to shift the defects. Meguiars Scratch X and a lot of elbow grease would be the first port of call.

A trip up to Derbyshire with some notes and I'll attack it with my 3.02 and PO85RD for you...
