i have a calypso red bm which has what i can only describe as cracks in the top coat/lacquer on one side - this has made the panel look quite dull and a lighter shade.
ive tried T cut on it which didnt really help - so short of a new paint job is there anything i can use to make it look better in the meantime?
any help on this wold be appreciated!!
Cheers

This sounds like a question for dave (d6dph), he is one of the care and detailing encyclopedias.

If your lacquer is cracking then it will need a respray i'm afraid.
