I'm going to have a crack at painting over some small chips on the nose of my FG, and I'm looking at this kit (Colourndrive.com/au). Car is kinetic blue mica (KN) and this is the only kit I've found. Anyone bought it? Got any other sellers I should look at? Cheers.

hi guys ive got a FG mk2 Xr6 turbo in Kinetic (owned for 8 months) and as wondering if anyone out there has the same issue as me. ive recently polished the car (not for the first time) and noticed I can only do a very small (approx 30cmx30cm) area of the car before the polish dries and is nearly impossible to get off. ive found myself putting all my body weight behind it just to get it off and even that sometimes doesnt work. sometimes even have to 'scrub' it to get it off. ive tried 6 or 7 different polishes from 2 or 3 different brands (meguiars wet look, ultimate polish and wax, armour-all too). I know a mate who has a mk2 in the same colour and can put the same polish on the entire car and then wipe it off with no problems. could this be in the paint or maybe something underneath? I cant seem to work it out thanks

I've got a dark blue 02 xr6 turbo, what are the costs of having the car sprayed a whole different colour? I'm thinking about going with toxic green

Hi guys Something weird I noticed today: my ego-coloured (I.e. "black") XR6 has two small-ish stripes on the driver's door. These stripes look "greyish". I tried rubbing it off but it won't come off. The paint has, apparently, changed colour on these two particular spots. It's not really noticable unless looked at closely. I have never heard of a car's paint changing colour. What's happening? My car is left out in the blistering sun for most of the day. Could that be what's causing the discolouration? However, It's odd that both stripes are on the driver's side... Has my neighbour put turps or something like that on my car to cause such a thing? (I live in unit and we share a car port, and my neighbour is suspect.) I would really appreciate some insight into this. I don't want my car to receive any more marks like the two I already have. Thank you.

Greetings I recently bought a 2006 BF XR6T Colour is Seduce and the previous owner has put silver GT stripes down the side. I'm considering removing the stripes, but I'm worried that the rest of the cars paint may have faded which could leave me with two different shades of paint on the car. Has anyone experienced this?? And any ideas how much a respray in the same original colour could cost?? Appreciate the help! :sungum:
