ive got a 98 flame red corsa and i found that t-cutting it worked but faded after about 2 weeks.I tried everything but with no long term success!HOWEVER ive found the answer which has sorted the paintwork out and doesnt fade with the weather its called SONAX and its a paint restorer and wax in one.I got hold of it from vauxhall for about £7.It really does do the job mate!!

Go to a bodyshop and ask them to mop it should be anywhere from £50-100 and will bring back the original colour and shine
