Paintwork f***ed once and for all? Fred?

I've been running PF97 pads over the winter, and the car's not had a proper wash for weeks.

Stuck it through a carwash today, and the sides of the car remain covered in brake dust.

Fred - you've got some miracle cure for this?

Fairy power spray ;) If it's really bad you might even be looking at clay as well .

  Whichever has fuel
Wet n Dry the affected areas, polish back up with a machine polisher.

LOL @ askin advice from fred.

Mark Autosmart tardis is a good option. But PF dust is brutal!!!
 
  Shed.
Clay

Try some other s**t, like super degreaser or how about wheel cleaner, tho not on your paintwork lol.

^^^ Why not . Paintwork on the body is the same as on your wheels , paint and lacquer .

the sonus green was a little too mild

how does that clay s**t work i want to try it but dont wanna fuk my paintwork up?

you apply the detailer which acts as a lubricant, gently pass the piece of clay over the lubed up bodywork and it picks up the contaminants

to a search for claying on here and you will see loads of info and tips :D

You could try using my lass.

She spent many a happy hour picking the tar splats off the sides of our old dynamique while I was washing it. Did a good job too! :D

spent about 10 hours with autoglym paint rennovator rubbing and the likes, then had to clay it...still not perfect either!
