:help:

hey, i have an imperial blue seat ibiza cupra mk3..
i love the colour, but notice a lot of inperfections around the door handles and windows. its been resprayed, but not very well bythe looks of it :(
the paint has got a faint white-ish colour to it in certain places, and looks very dull on the passengerside rear quarter.

would a machine polish help bring this back again? or would i be looking at a respray again?

also, what order would i do things in to get the best overall finish?
just some simple steps would begreat (or point me inthe right direction)

is it something like this...

1. wash car with water
2. clean with shampoo/water mixture
3. wash again with water
4. clay car down
5. wash again
6. wax
:confused::shrug:
???all confusing! :( and i want to start taking better care of the paint!

thanks in advance
