CarPro ClearCut

So, the paint on the Turbo is awful. My wife doesn't really care, and it's a car with 100,000 miles, dozens of track days, several cross country trips, and a 180MPH visit to the Salt Flats.

I've previously tried to make some headway on it with my go to of porter cable orbital, aggressive pad, and Meguiar's M105. That did *not* produce good results.

After a pass with ClearCut, the paint is starting to *almost* look tolerable.

So far, *highly* recommended.

As a *huge* bonus, it seems to interface *really well* with Dr. Colorchip touchup paint. With the microfiber/wool hybrid pad that I'm currently using, it'll strip the excess touchup paint off while leaving the excess in the chip. Which is brilliant, because I get to skip all the annoying work that's normally involved in using Dr. Colorchip.
