Don't try and get through the lacquer!! It'd need a repaint for sure then as you;d be through to the base coat and it would have no shine. Try Metallic T-Cut, but it will need wax afterwards.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I have a 97 C4 and the two front wings have faded. I tried the old T-Cut but couldnt get through the laquer. As this is my first 911 maybe you could tell me if this is normal and if so can I do anything about it other than getting the front end re-painted, thanks.
