Solution Finish paint. Thanks SuperStu


HEADPHONES

Recommended Posts

Years ago the tailgate and rear plastic bumper on my wife's car got caved in.

The body shop used filler on the bumper and then a textured black paint.

The finish was pretty good.

Bit after 5 years it had gone a chalky white, similar to 20yr old faded trim.

Gtechniq C4 had no effect.

Rather than use those ghastly sticky back to black dressings which streak and run in the rain, I remembered SuperStu's write up on Solution Finish paint.

The bottle was ordered and arrived. It was so tiny you'd struggle to cram 2 Rolos in it :lol:

Alas Stuff did say a little goes a long way so I wasn't too worried.

The stuff was amazing.

Dabbed a bit onto a MF and wiped on.

Blended into the surrounding couple of inches and the colour match is PERFECT.

The only evidence is the slight change in surface texture from the repair beneath.

the pics below are after 3 months. No maintenance or top ups and I still have over 90% left in the bottle.
