Touching up the Fascias

[mwesten]

Hey gang couple questions pertaining to the fascias and appearance.

1) I have an early ?82 and this a more matte set of fascias, which is cool and all. But what products do you guys use to shine them up and de-scratch them? I used NuFinish and it?s ok but doesn?t really make a difference, and I don?t want to use compound or stuff like that.

2) I have a small chip of paint missing on the rear, is there anything that?s a close match that you?ve used? Like a paint pen or something close in color?

I use this on my original paint facias to protect them. I have a later car with satin as well. When I get them repainted I plan to ceramic coat them. I also use 476S on my other cars painted wheels to help keep brake dust from sticking - works well.

If you don't know what you're doing, bring it to a body shop that seems to be focused on classic cars and customs (not MAACO). The tech there will do whatever he can to make it the best possible. After that, if you still don't like it, you'll need a repaint.

So I’m not to that point yet. I have other more pressing needs to figure out, but in the meantime want her to look good where I can control it. Just curious what folks are using other than professional repainting.
