I brought some T-cut the other day to black my badges and try using it today.. but i dont know how it works haha i put it onto the badges left it for like an hour and when i rubbed it off nothing happened? can anyone tell me how to do it?

[liamo90]

put some on to a cloth then give it a good rub

[Dannyssax]

then do i have to leave it or anything?

[liamo90]

no just keep it on the cloth and rub hard constantly the badges will start to go black

Why not just sand them down and spray them properly? There's only one place for T-cut IMO...

When i first joined here, i asked something about using t cut and soon found this ^^ was ALOT of peoples opinions :p .. and it didnt do its job anyway so thats exactly where it went

tcut is poor really. but for doing the badges it is a simple way to do them.

i think my mate applied his to the rough side of a sponge(scouring side) and did it like that it only took him 5 minutes

lol, its an abrasive not a stripper.
A lot of people dont like it as they have decent paint. IF you have an old white transit thats like a chalk board with oxidisation, marks and scratches, mop it over with Tcut being careful not to cut to much off its brilliant stuff!! You then need to remove it with detergent, it takes a stupid amount of effort to buff off.

So many people have bought a bottle then approached their reasonably well polished, decent paint, hand applied some tcut badly to a panel then tried to buff it off then slated it saying its a load of shit, when really, they just dont know how to use the product, nor need to.

And with good reason mate ;)

T-Cut is the work of the devil if you ask me :panic: lol

[LSOfreak]

its just far too abrasive to use normally

[josh89vtr]

I did mine with wet n dry and then put bumper restorer on them. Worked a treat :D

T cut is perfectly fine for badges. Takes 5minutes and costs next to fuck all and in the long run wont deteriorate.

Yeh TCut is decent for the badges but wouldn't use it on any good condition paintwork..

You need elbow grease I managed to do mine today it will take a good 10 mins of non stop rubbing. Rubbing compound helps too. You can try Halfords own compound if the T-cut is too light.

Little bit of water on some wet/dry paper followed by a gentle rub of the badges,hey presto black badges.No need for t-cut.

[blackie_2k5]

Damp cloth.. T cut on then rub.. It's a polish... You have to work it lol
