Dont know what it is about the old vw paints. They chalk up like yours and mine did.I think that is good.Dupont polishing compound will remove the oxide and provide a shine that you may like better than a new paint job.It comes in a round , flat can , like most waxes. Has green lettering.Easy to find.You must protect this new shine with a wax coating ,or it will reoxidize,back to whence it came, in about 6 weeks. |
