Subject:Paint and other care questions

Hi folks,

        Earlier John Rogers talked about trying to bring back the finish on his new van .

My van needs some care as well.  Though recently painted I need to figure out how to bring back the finish.  Several washings and  such have not done much so far. 

I was spoiled by a good clear coat for a few years but now the look I took pride in needs some fixing up.

This is not something I know about.  Any tips on how to buff back a car is appreciated.

I need to be careful as When I did this as a young man with a vision problem I buffed right down to bare metal!

Tips appreciated.

I will be talking to a body care professional in a few weeks but I’d love to get a start on it.

Thanks list!
