0 camaro2ssblack Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Fairly easy to correct except for the painted plastics such as the front and rear bumpers. I still have not been able to get those areas to correct on my Camaro. Obviously you need to determine if the stripes are painted or vinyl and act accordingly. Good luck!

0 ihaveacamaro Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I'm also trying to learn how to take swirls out of vinyl.... some people say it's impossible though :/ Btw, that is crystal red tintcoat, so if you see color on your pad, don't worry as it's normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to try the FMP on Blue Hex see what happens to the stripes. Then coat with SVRT. Really pretty car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
