Hello everyone,

Few months ago I restore my car paint with the following products:

Meguiar's Clay Bar
3M Perfect-It III Fast Cut Plus
Meguiar's Ultimate Compound
Meguiar's Ultimate Polish
No wax applied yet


But... the paint looks like something between orange and red which driving me nuts.
Like this (same car): https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fa/Opel_Corsa_D_Colour_Stripes_Facelift_Heck.JPG

This is the car after the restoration with no polish, wax on it: https://i.imgur.com/xcXTZBP.jpg
This is from the polishing process but I do not remember which side was with polish and which without :(
I think the left one was with the Ultimate Polish which is weird cause the right one looks better to my eyes, am I right? : https://i.imgur.com/2YOqrHY.jpg

Is there any way to remove everything that is onto the paint to see the color or the paint without anything on it?
And which product should I use to get a deeper look closer to red so the car don't look orangish at sun?

Thank everyone for your time!

Paint sealant give it a glass look.. Wax gives it a warm look. I gave up on wax, You have to apply every 3-4 weeks. Don't have that kind of time.


menzerna powerlock, or your favorite paint sealant no more then 20 bucks. Personally I can't tell the difference after the Paint sealant cures. I tried diluting alcohol 40/60 but it dulled the paint a little. At least I could see there were no more swirl marks :-) I like having a nice oil mixed in with the polish.
