I know the coils are gone

Please read the first post

Disagree. If you don't know what you're doing you'll do more damage to your finish compared to not doing anything to it at all. i'll add to my list - know what your doing :)

if you know how that can tell, please let us know. IMHO, paint protection is the use of the following: Good quality products A lazy Sunday afternoon Elbow grease

all the claybar will do is make the surface "smooth"....and remove any burrs / contamination on the paint work. If you can post a pic, it might be able to help us help you :)

First post updated 1: Nix19

do you have pics? First task is shoot the cat, then polish out the scratches (if they are not too deep)

just wondering,how would toyota know if the paint protection has been touch? A very valid question. To be honest....not sure. The only thing I can think of is by running some form of chemical analysis.........would they bother? Again not sure. FYI, I was always skeptical about "Dealer Paint Protection", I think the devil is in the details.

I have a black car

:)

not getting into details, but I will assume that Toyota use something like http://www.carcareproducts.com.au/product/nanolex/paint_sealant_kit. IF so, i'd be interested to see how long the water beads for. My real question is "what is the warranty on the paint protection?". do you need to use some special shampoo to keep the warranty? I would get these sort of questions answered before for apply anything new. For tungstan, http://www.carcareproducts.com.au/product/dodo_juice/purple_haze_panel_pot should lift the colour (pop) right out http://www.carcareproducts.com.au/product/dodo_juice/basics_of_bling_finger_wax_applicator - use this to apply the wax have fun

If you want shine, try http://www.carcareproducts.com.au/product/einszett_1z/glanz_wax - easy to apply, dries clear adds shine and some depth If you want depth, try http://www.carcareproducts.com.au/product/dodo_juice/rainforest_rub - does require work to apply (manual task), but the depth is out of this world as a side note, what colour is car? enjoy

Couzellion, When you spray water on your car, does it bead (form into the spots, looks like bubble wrap), if it does, you paint is protected, if it doesn't, the protection is gone. How to fix? Try a good aqua wax or spray sealant like duragloss aqua wax or dodo juice red mist. These products aren't the cheapest, but personally they have been by never failers. Peace out

maybe a clay of the car?
