you can but the colour cant fade so it will just polish up the laquer.

I did mine when I first got it in metallic t-cut and it was brilliant. Advice though don't use it too often as it seem more abrasive than the normal stuff, so will take too much laquer off.

also im having new panels srayed up on the front (both wings driver's door)so should 2blend it back to the new colour im thinking!?

if you buy t-cut for metalics then you can use it on any solid colour or clear coats,
