everyone know's how some of the se-r's came with a shitty black paint job. My 200 looked like it had a chameleon color paint job just because of oxidation. Yesterday i went and bought meguiars paint cleaner and it worked wonders for my se-r. It looks better than when i got it off the lot. i highly recommend if anyone has the same problem. it is kind of pricey though i paid 5.00. Hope this helps any one.

it will be grey in about a month. nothing you can do about it but keep wax on it.

Yeah I use Eagle One Wet Polish & Wax combo. Works great for 2 weeks then I'm Grey again. I've learned to deal with it.

How much does that 3-step thing cost from meguiars/mothers? This isn't what you are talking about, is it?

Save money and just get it re-painted. My paint sucked more than anything on my black SE-R, and I couldn't take it. So I got it repainted.............made all the difference in the world.

I used Mother's Clay Bar and the Mequire's 3-Step. with applicator pads and everything I think I paid around $20. I did it a couple month's ago and have only washed it a couple times since then b/c it's been raining so damn much here. My paint was badly oxidized, but now it is a slick black. No fading or anything. I would highly reccomend anyone try this who can scavenge the money up.

BTW, i'm 19 and trying to start flight school, so if I can afford it.. anyone can....
