If it's starting to go proper pink then maybe a good machine polish/correction is in order. There was a thread on detailing world about an old Mazda 323 which had faded to pink and it was brought out to an awesome red finish !! I'll try and find it mate.

Get it machine polished to get the best results.

Pm Predator_vtr or Wayne

It doesnt cost a great deal and the finish you will be left with will be awesome

Thats a good price......depending on the products and the level of knowledge / skill the person has.

One thing i will say is people think bodyshops are good at machine polishing and they arent....they use the same pad on loads of cars and use poor techniques which can create swirls and holograming.
