Default Buffing my 01 integra.

I was looking into getting my teggy painted this summer because the paint is fading.

The car is originaly red but the rear driver side and roof is turning pink.

Was wondering how much it costs to get the car buffed at a shop? and if anyone has done this before if they can show me some pictures before and after.

thanks.

I don't think buffing it will.bring back the colour, when mine started fading pink I just slowly starter painting it piece by piece. This is the worst thing about Milano red on our cars they turn pink. I suggested if your getting it painted it summer just wait till then.

agreed! i have a 2000 and the paint started fading. got the car painted. no buffing will bring back that colour. the paint is too thin on the parts that are pink, which is why its fading.

i got my entire car painted for $2200 cash

Dont forget to rust proof after! Theres a place called rathna i believe near vp and danforth. Ive seen some nice paint jobs come out of there for less than half the price. For milano red i love sseing it done with extra coats of gloss on a integra. Its just beautiful.
