Product Information
Full details
T-Cut Original Paint Restorer is an essential solution for automotive enthusiasts and homeowners looking to revive faded or damaged paintwork, offering a proven formula that removes oxidation, light scratches, and stubborn road grime since 1954. This versatile restorer is perfect for restoring original color and luster to cars, motorcycles, boats, and even household painted surfaces; however, users should note that it acts as a deep cleaner and surface primer rather than a final protective wax, meaning a follow-up sealant is required for long-term finish protection.

FAQs
Does T-Cut provide protection after application?
No, T-Cut is a restorer and cleaner. It is designed to prepare the surface, so you must apply a wax or paint sealant afterwards to protect your work.
Is this product safe for modern clear-coat finishes?
Yes, it is safe for clear-coat paintwork, but you should always use a gentle touch and avoid over-polishing specific areas.
Can I use this on plastic trim?
T-Cut is formulated for painted surfaces. Avoid getting it on unpainted textured plastic trim, as it can leave a white residue that is difficult to remove.
How often should I use T-Cut?
Because it is a restorative abrasive, it should not be used as a regular wash. Use it only when the paintwork is dull, oxidized, or has light surface scratches.
Can I use it on dark-colored cars?
Yes, it works well on all colors, including black and dark blues, provided you use clean cloths to prevent swirl marks.
Troubleshooting
The finish looks hazy after buffing.
You may have applied too much product or allowed it to dry too long; buff again with a fresh, clean microfiber cloth.
Scratches are not disappearing.
The scratches may be too deep for a restorative polish. If you can feel the scratch with your fingernail, it likely requires professional repair rather than a surface restorer.
Product is difficult to remove.
Apply the product in smaller, manageable sections and ensure you buff it off while it is still slightly damp.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure the surface is thoroughly washed and completely dry to prevent grinding loose dirt particles into the paint.

- Application: Apply a small amount of T-Cut to a clean, damp cloth.
- Treatment: Work the product into the paintwork using firm, circular motions, covering a small area at a time.
