Paint experts ? Chalky paint ?

Early Jap cars didn't use 2 stage paints. The elements destroy enamel paints especially the sun. Most folks won't take the time to wax a car so the finish has no real protection. 80's and early 90's Toyotas are the same way. I usually waste a good wool pad when detailing the older Toyotas and Hondas. I did find a way to help clean the dead paint before buffing it. Large carwash sponge and a box of baking soda will do wonders before a good buffing!!

I would always advise them that most of the original finish will be removed and will require a new paint job at a later date. They really didn't care since most were selling them anyway.

Not to many bc/cc cars did that. Most I have seen had the cc delaminating.
