Hello, once you have used T-cut on your car,do you then use a good quality wax,if you don't then you need to,as the wax protects the paint and will stop the rain from washing it away,it is important to wax as T-cut is a abrasive and thins the paint slighty to blend the scratches,hope this helps

T-Cut's full of filler and doesn't actually remove the defects - hence the re-appearance of the scratches. The best way is to use a dual action polisher or rotary polisher and a proper compound. Or use an abrasive which can be used by hand (athough it takes ages when working by hand!)

We have a huge range of Halfords Colour touch kits available online and instore. This kits help you mask small scratches in paintwork. If you look inside the bonnet of your car the VIN plate contains the paint code for your car.

If we do not stock the exact paint for your car many of our stores can mix the required colour for you.

If the overspray is sitting on top of the existing lacque, clay is ideal for this.

The Meguiars Smooth Surface Clay Kit contains a Non-abrasive clay bar which safely, easily and instantly removes paint overspray, to allow rewaxing/polishing.
