In Reply to: Buffing Faded Paint posted by Kerwin on August 22, 2017 at 07:52:24:
Chances are it was painted with a enamel paint without the gloss hardener added (some places sell the gloss hardener as "wet look"). The paint without the hardener added when it is painted the paint doesn't fully dry underneath the very top of paint. Once you buff off that dry part on top of the paint it will fade even quicker because the paint under the very top has never fully cured (it won't hold the shine very long) so you are fighting a battle you can win. Best thing to do is clean the tractor really, go over it with wax, and grease remover, scrape, and sand the paint down, wipe it over with wax, and grease remover again the repaint the tractor with enamel paint with the gloss hardener mixed in the paint before it is sprayed on. The gloss hardener will cure the paint all the way through, the shine will last a whole lot longer, the paint will be also be more resistant to scratching, and chipping plus it can be buffed back to a nice shine years later, and the shine will last a lot longer.
