Alee something on here got his wrapped and they had a really great colour match and his Rallye looks mint!
RE: Fading bonnet cherry red - Mac22 - 11-09-2013
Yeh I heard I could do that.. Apparently you can do red carbon wrap. I Dno.. I need to tcut it first and if that doesn't work well then yeh.

Get some proper polish rather than t cut it'll work better
a high cut menzerna would be my choice tbh

Polish works wonders on a proper polishing machine, hand polishing is to much work and you may not get the same quality finish.

Jimbo/mac I've got a dual action polisher polishes and pads
RE: Fading bonnet cherry red - Mac22 - 11-09-2013
Do you? Let me use it!!!
ip you ca see my bonnet is abit faded. Want to do the whole car to make it look nice! 
yeh I bought that stuff so just need to have a good half a day doing it all! But like you said I need a polisher!

Yeah, cherry red is a twat! Always fight a loosing battle. A good polish with a DA should bring it up some but will never be the same! I ended up getting my bonnet wrapped. It looks ok, but the roof and boot are the worst bits. Thinking of doing the roof black and having the boot wrapped Red too...!

Maybe mate took me ages to do mine last time lol
RE: Fading bonnet cherry red - Mac22 - 12-09-2013
Alee83 yeh mate it's hard I bought it already faded but its not that bad! You car looks mint! I never no wether to have black alloys or white!! But yeh il give it a good tcut and hopefully it will be ok. Yeh the roof is fine but bonnet is a bit faded.. I thort about doing the roof black to! Did you wrap your bonnet red!?
Fading bonnet cherry red - Alee83 - 13-09-2013
No mate, got it wrapped at the same place I got my tints done! I watched them do it and would probably give the roof a go myself!
RE: Fading bonnet cherry red - Mac22 - 13-09-2013
Ah nice mate ! Yh I'm thinking about doing it!! Your bumper is smart what one is that?

Phase 3 bumper with the GTi splitter... Standard kit for this car!
RE: Fading bonnet cherry red - Mac22 - 13-09-2013
