Hi All, I'm looking at a early 80's P car with badly scuffed / scratched clear coat. The car was kept in a barn with a tarp on it for years, hence the scuffing. What, if any options are available to try and bring the clear back vs a re-spray?Attached Image

I believe if the paint work is done correctly, that is to say, glass, trim, seals removed and then prepared and painted properly, cleared and polished, really no issue with value. If someone just tapes off glass and trim and shoots color, now I see a depreciation of value.

If it is a clean low-mileage car, please have it done by a shop that does the work correctly and get photos in process in the event you ever sell and need to disclose the work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
