Got the car in my garage at the new house which is great and means I can do far more with it now. The roof peel is very bad. I know it needs a respray but would like to remove the remaining clear coat if possible. Jet wash has removed some, would a very fine grit wet and dry be suitable? Better removed than left on to be fair.
Before I had mine rectified with a back to the metal roof respray I used a machine polisher which made it look a bit more presentable, nothing sorts it out other than new paint.
I wasn't sure but figured the worst case scenario was losing about £40 for the vinyl and if I took it off it might take most of the remaining lacquer with it. I went for carbon effect as I hoped it would help hide the peeled areas which would show with gloss - it is partially effective at that.
It looks better than i hoped it would so I'll live with it until I can afford/justify a full respray of the car.
