The original paint on my pure-German 300D was similar. I applied three coats of Maguiar's #7. First the clay bar treatment then the wax. I let the first coat of #7 soak for 24 hours so the paint could absorb the oil. Then applied two more coats per instructions, then two applications of Mother's Carnuba wax. I liked the results. That 914 should clean up the same.
All hand application, NO buffer involved. Attached thumbnail(s)

Change the transmission oil too. I've taken apart transmissions stored for years in a hot climate and found the oil deteriorates and leave a waxy coating on all the interior parts.

We too often ignore the transmission oil. I change mine once a year. |
