Product Information

Have you ever walked past your car and done a double-take because you’ve just noticed a scratch? And then you frantically rub over it, hoping it’s just a dirt smudge, but it remains. Not all surfaces are made equal. T-Cut Solution works best on metal surfaces and paintwork with a glossy finish. Using it on matte paint finishes or non-metallic paintwork can cause more harm than good. Time is of the Essence A small amount of T-Cut should be able to remove spray paint from your car paintwork. As with all applications, it needs to be applied very carefully to ensure that further damage is not attributed to the care whilst removing the spray paint. Which T-Cut to use? Next comes the application. Working in a circular motion, rub the solution over the scratched area, applying firmly to ensure it gets into the grooves of the damage (especially with coloured T Cut). In many cases, the cloth changes colour as the top layer of paint is removed. Don’t worry, that is perfectly normal although it is not the case with metallic finishes as the lacquer on these is clear. These products are abrasive. Using a fine grit, they buff out imperfections. Coupled with the lightest touch, they can totally change the appearance of a clear coat layer on your paintwork. Initially the area goes more dull, but don’t panic. Keep plugging away and the smooth shine will soon be restored.

T-Cut Metallic Colour Restorer – Less abrasive than T-Cut original, so it is more suited for sensitive paint finishes, specifically for metallic surfaces and pearlescent paintwork. T-Cut Colour Fast – Removes minor scratches, scuffs and marks, all whilst adding colour, in one simple application.
