Are Red Rallyes laquered?Just wondering if the pink paint would come back up to red with a machine polish or if its laquered you would not improve colour just make it shiny pink  ________________________________________ Red GTB1756 powered Fabia VRS daily driver,LBSC Gti6 eater........Mac1 ZR R1 kit car build in progress. |

Hi mate - the paint work should come up ok with a bit of elbow grease etc BUT the skirts won't, get em resprayed - makes a hell of a difference. You might have probs with the bumpers as well but its worth a go!Good luck and get some pics up. ________________________________________ No more peugeots Snap - no more RS clio Now Ph1 RS clio |

CheersJust looking for a car at the minute  Love the Cheery red,but not sure I can be doing with the fade They look nice and red in the pics,then in the flesh faded badly  If they are laquered theres no way a polish will bring the colour back Do you get red off the cars on your cloth when you polish them????  ________________________________________ Red GTB1756 powered Fabia VRS daily driver,LBSC Gti6 eater........Mac1 ZR R1 kit car build in progress. |

Its usually the other way around TBH. The two I have at the mo are nice and red, but in the pics look pink!

The one I viewed earlier in the week which is on E-Bay with 55k miles on it looks great in pics,take a look But in the flesh its well pink Roof/tops of doors/quarters seem to be the worse parts,sideskirts slightly,but look like would polish up ________________________________________ Red GTB1756 powered Fabia VRS daily driver,LBSC Gti6 eater........Mac1 ZR R1 kit car build in progress. |

Just bumping an old thread! You will be able to get the sideskirts more red/less pink with a machine polisher! I use 3m fast cut plus and it brought them up better! |
