sap, swirlmark, and small scratch help
Yesterday i washed my car for the first time in a few weeks, and relized it was loaded with swirl marks, sap, and a few small scratches. Is there anyway short of a good buff job to safley remove any or all of these,(i'm not looking for perfect, just less noticiable) cases its a dark cherry color and everything shows up in sunlight

Be sure to do some before and after pics and post them. |
Yeah I just used a ton of scratch-x last weekend on my car and it worked very well. You really have to work it in there though. Also I read that its best to work it perpendicular to the scratch. So if you have a horizontal scratch, rub the scratch-x in vertically.

CLAY BAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
use that first, then use the Meguires scratch x. I am sure you will be happy with the results. Keep in mind that the scratch x will not remove ALL of the swiirl marks, but do one side of the hood / fender/ whatever you need to do, then compare both sides and notice the results yourself 8) There may still be some swirl marks / scratches in the paint, but you will most likely notice a difference. |
thanks for all the tips...i just talked to a friend that owns a body shop and after i romove the sap and clay bar it, he'll buff all the swirl marks and small scratches for $60, i will get some before and after pics...the car looks great in the shade, but in direct sunlight it looks awful
