Adam:
It's amazing what you can do with some good rubbing compound and a little elbow grease.
FIRST WASH THE CAR AND CLAY BAR!!!!! YOU HAVE TO REMOVE ALL DIER BEFORE USING COMPONDS OR YOU'LL BE SORRY IN WAY'S A CANNOT BEGIN TO EXPLAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get one of these kits:
AND...
Grab this:
A little water and a clean cloth.
Dip the rag in water to dapen and grab alttle of the compound on the rag.
In a circular motion with good force, (enough to see the panel flex) work the compond over the scratch.
Wipe off compund with a CLEAN rag and check to see if the scratch is less noticable. (What the compound achieves is it takes off a very small layer of clear coat (not enough to damage)
If the scratch is still noticiable (with a finger nail) re apply and grind on it some more.
When you're happy with the results...
Apply this:
And then finally this:
After all that, the scratch should be barely noticiable. (unless you point it out)
If you want, I can work on it at the BBQ.
Let me know how you make out!
