My TA lettering on back lens is faded
Like the sunbject says, my lettering above the hatch key hole that says "trans am" is really faded, what do you do fix this? decals, paint, get a new one?

The Acetone in nail polish can eat through the plastic though. Get some 2000 or 1500 wet sand paper and wet sand it down. Then take some 3M fine-cut rubbing compound to shine it back up. Then you can apply decals like I did. I also put a light coat of clear over the decals because the edges kept catching when I would wash and zaino

It's real easy to do!

and loose color when a clear is used, what clear coat did you use? Did you get the graphics from autografics.com? And why does everyone act like zaino is dfferent than any other wax/polish, is it really that different to warrant this?
