Might as well introduce myself while Im here, Im David aged 19, I passed my driving test 2 weeks ago, pretty much learned to drive and did my test in my mum's starlet and I loved it. I had some money to buy me a new car, did a few test drives in other cars but I still loved driving the starlet more. So then my mum decides she wants to borrow my money for a new car and buy herself one, in return I get the Starlet for free and she pays me back over a year. Though this was a deal too good to miss. So thats how I got my starlet. So ive got a Red 1998 Toyota Starlet Sportif with just over 40000 miles on the clock for nothing. A quick newb question how do I know what EP it is, done some browsing but cant seem to find how its worked out? Now my problem. Basically my mum didnt look after her cars bodywork very well, this has left me with a bonnet and roof which seems to have a white mist permanently on it. It can be rubbed off with my finger but this isn't easy and im not going to spend forever rubbing it off with my finger. So I though Id try to T Cut it. It definatly made a difference, but im still not happy with it, I couldnt get a nice shiny smooth finish, Ive tried polish but that just seem to make the white mist come back. It is almost as if the paint has lost the top layer that makes it smooth and shiny. If anyone has any tips or advice it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and looking forward to modding my car with a bit or probably a lot of help from the people on here. David
