Need advice on restoring zinnobar red paintwork

[notsofast]

Hi there,

The zinnobar red paintwork of my 320 is mostly good except for a small area on one of the doors, just between the bottom of the window and the door handle, which has turned a shade of milky red/pink.

I tried to cut back the oxidised paint by hand, using Farecla G6 (as recommended in a Total BMW article on paint restoration), but there seems to be a hard outer layer of old polish or something that prevents the compound from getting close to the paint!

What should I do?

Thanks in advance as always.

Probably been painted at some time to fix a scratch or something along those lines.

mY whole car is this colour!

t-cut only works for a little while for some reason.
meguiars 3 stage didn' really do anything either, maybe i didn' try hafd enough.

This 3m stuff is going to be the next try:

I've had excellent results with Auto Glym paint restorer, same shape bottle as all the other stuff and around a fiver.

Worked a treat on my zinnobar pink motor.
