hwy guys
i took off the 'commodore' and 'equipt' badges off my vx but for some reason the gloss has come off underneath it. its just left 2 rectangles where the badges used to be. i tried a cut n polish but it didnt do anything. it looks really crap and i really want it fixed.
any ideas?

thanks

Pictures? Pretty sure VX's have a clear coat, not a good idea to use cutting compounds on them.

so the clear coat paint came off with the decal?

[johnnyy]

thannks..ill put up a picture tomoro, well it must be the clear coat thats just dissapeared

[johnnyy]

yeh it mustve come off with the badge, i dont no why coz i followed the intructions of what other people said

Guess one way to fix it is stick the badges back on. Cheaper than a respray.

WTF is an equipt...
It's an Equip.
An I don't even bloody own one of those...

You just got burned trying to burn someone :P

It's also possible that the car had already been resprayed and the badges were just masked up at that time. If there is a noticeable lip on the edge of the paint, then you only have two options.

1. Rub back and respray the area, or the whole panel
2. Replace the badges.
