Hi Guys, my car rooftop paint starting to become dull or faded. I guess it happened as I always park my car under the sun.

Im just wondering, instead of having it re-spray, can I reshine back the paint by using those Polish & Wax liquid that selling in the market? ie. Turtle Wax (meant for dull or aging color). Does it really works? I dont mind paying RM100for a bottle if it really works. I've heard many comments that those products do not deliver the promises as stated on the products.

Anyone done tat before and show promising results, mind to share the brand or type of wax/polish which can regain back the dull/aging paint? Btw, my car's paint is metallic black.

Thanks all in advance for ur advise.

Yeah....some photos would be nice. Need to see what is the condition of your roof first and whether or not it can be saved.

Regards.

Hi, Guys,
Need advice from sifu,
Recently my 96 Accord SV4 had wiper problem. when I switch on the intermittent stage, the wiper swept non stop. As for the slow and fast speed , it works okay.
Sometimes when I switched on the wiper at intermittent it swept for a while and stopped. At times it swept non stop. I have to pull my car at the road side and off the engine and start again. Sometimes it can be off and at times it will repeat sweeping non stop.
I've tried to replace the wiper...
