  1. 4 CEP's/ Class 411 in kent. There is a lot of info on this site . https://www.kentrail.org.uk/Class 411 & 412.htm
  2. Most of it is Arc from OHL or the 3rd rail. Every time they spark when it's damp. When it get's to your car it's still hot . That in turns burns on your paint work . You can wash your car all day it will not remove it. As for brake dust you have only got to look at your alloy whees to see the build up.
  3. If your car as been parked near a railway line for awhile. Then you get ark and brake dust from the trains on your cars. With white it will show more . Now you will NOT get it off with T cut or compound G5 or G6 nor will a bodyshop mop remove it . Over the years i've worked in the motor trade there are only two ways to remove it. A respray or a ACID bath I've done a few acid baths over the years. There is no way anybody can just bye this stuff . The way you use it is that you get a large paint brush and paint it on . Leave for 5 mins then steam clean off dont let it get on crome or glass when neat acid. After give your car a polish It will not damage paintwork. When you do put the acid on it steams DON'T get it on you.
  4. When i worked at a garage we had cars come in with stone chips on the bonnets. Before we put them up to be sold we had to touch them in. The way we did it was get the correct paint color . Then use a cocktail stick to touch in the chips.
