My car is starting to turn pink....i booked it into a body shop......which has now closed..due to problems..

Is there any kind of stuff better than T-cut to get it back RED?

try G3 cutting compound. but be careful with it though because it is quite abrasive. Autoglym also do trade compounds like that. you cant get them from anywhere like halfords i dont think, ull have to go somewhere more specialist to get hold of that.

you want to use in this order with a bodyshop buffer g3 compound,3m finess,then good quality polish then a good sealer wax by hand.
as said above be carefull with the g3.
the results should be worth the effort.

I've only had my 1st car since Friday, I'm going to T-Cut when we get some better weather (no garage). Anybody got any useful tips for a newbie? Do you give it a normal wash 1st?

What do you guys (and girls) use to wash your cars, just warm water and washing up liquid?
