The paint on the body, try to use a rubbing compound. It is used to remove swirls & light scratches from the body. If u not confident, go to those professional polishers. They can remove for a price. It's not so serious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver_blade Turbocharged November 4, 2008 Share November 4, 2008 If your car is groomed regularly....you should be able to remove the paint (looks like emulsion paint) with clay bar and polish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you can provide the colour code, a good paint shop will be able to get the colour they need. If they can't, they do not have the necessary resources and should not be in the buisness, period. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryanyusoff 2nd Gear November 9, 2009 Share November 9, 2009 usually by the side of the door frame or when u open ur bonnet,it's just on top of the radiator(not on the radiator,rather the car body itself). range from car to car.mine's a Honda.can refer to ur manual too to find that small metal piece indicating the color code details. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
