My corsa is flame red but it’s now a pinkie colour what’s the best way to restore it to the original colour? I have used t-cut and colour restorer but it only makes it shiny for a couple of days. Can any one help??

Spend proper time doing it, mine almost goes white (after the pink stage) and if I spend a decent day with T-cut/SRP/Megs2 etc then it is mint for months. Make sure you wax it afterwards and ideally put a sealer on it. It may also be worth one of those supaguard kits to seal it after (not used one of those yet though TBH)

Or you could take it to get it buffed, dear though.

hi there im a car valeter and to get the best finish you could eith buff it or spend abit of time t-cutting it, then put on a coat of polish called MER its german stuff its great9look in my project section to see the difference it can make) then as said earlier get a supaguard kit and use the sealer as again that is good stuff( a mate told me(also car valeter) not yet used it on mine)

i have the same problem mate. the last time this the what i did:
1. wash car
2. use meguiars paint cleaner
3. t-cut original
4. apply autoglym ultra deep shine. i use this because it acts as a polish and a wax.
after ive done this i go round the car and buff again with a cotton polishing cloth.
in between poilishing i use meguiars Soft Wash Gel because it does not strip the wax coating off the body. id avoid using powerwashers, except for under the body/ arches etc.
