Hello everyone, I decided to try out my adams heavy correcting polish last night on an old Mercedes I have. I was thrilled to see the brilliance come back but as I stood back and let the light shine across the panel I noticed some cloud shaped stains all over it. Is this just because its a 1982 and was neglected for so long? Or is there a way to really restore the beauty of this paint? Wet sanding? Also it has polished anodized aluminum trim and it is very ugly.... White milky haze all over.
Here's an overall shot of it in its faded glory
This is what the whole roof, hood, trunk looked like before polish
Here I tried my best to capture the staining I mentioned.
