I picked up my T2 last monday and so far have done just a regular wax job.. now i'm redoing it all with a mothers 3 step and damn the cloths are just red from all the oxidized paint I think by the time I get done cleaning all the sun oxidization off I'll be down to the primer

yep, when I got my 'vert it looked more dull orange than red. Red paints just need a little more work than some owners give the car.

It looks better now, but I used a half dozen different things to clean the paint.


Some parts like the mirrors and headlight covers are easier just to paint new than try and get the oxidation out of.

I just did the 3 step meguiars on white paint that was in bad shape, and it turned out great. The first step was the hardest. The polishing and waxing are alot easier.

I used meguiars scratchX first and it is a great product.
