Just bought myself a '07 Renault Clio, I polished it as soon as I collected it from the dealer and noticed the paint feels rough. The paintwork looks glossy but feels like a satin paint finish when you touch it, along with some fine dust as well.

Any recommendations on what action to take to improve the finish of the paintwork?

Thanks,
Tom

Thanks for the advice, I've ordered myself an Autoglym clay kit and some extra gloss protection to try and sort the paint out. Don't really want to send the car back to the dealer. They apparently cleaned it before I picked it up, their standards are a lot lower than mine.

Washed, clayed, polished and sealed. Doesn't look or feel too bad. smile
