Just wondering on how I can remove stains/marks off my seats.
I have tried some meguiers stuff, forgot what it was but that hardly did anything to it at all.

What material and what kind of 'stains' are we talking about?

VC SL/E
Just wonder if there is anyway of removing primer off of paint? I purchased a VC SLE commodore that the bloke seemed to of just primed over the paint (primer is the blue gray, some has chipped off and i can see white. Seems to be the original paint job). Or is it just in need of a sand back to bare metal and respray.

It needs a respray i know that, just dont have the money for a couple of months.

Cheers Rick

I've been reading through all these pages about giving cars a cut and polish if the paint is a little weathered. We wanted to avoid giving our VR a whole respray if necessary, The rest of the paint is still fairly decent at the moment just the roof and bonnet looks like a white powder. We were actually thinking the owners before us might of lived near the beach near salt water, the grit and grime on it can be rubbed off with our hands which then just leaves a white powder smear. This is the only pic I have of it at the moment, but does anyone think I might be able to just give it a few cut and polishes and it might bring it up to a respectable level in line with the rest of the car which is similar to the bumper in the picture, or has it just simply gone to far :(
