I just debadged my trunk and used a credit card. It left scratches, how do i get rid of those?

 

NEVER use a credit card is the first problem.. try using maguires scratch x

 

ehhh yea horrible decision to use a credit card.. use fishing line next time... and any type of scrath remover should kinda take them out

 

NO!

to the OP, never ever do that again, slap yourself in the face. now find someone that buffs paint. if you were near me i could take care of it

 

ya if they are just superficial scratches that haven't gone deep enough they will buff right out. if they went through the clear coat then short of having the area's repainted you could try filling them with touch up paint.

 

Blow dryer and fishing line FTW!

How bad are the scratchs would be the first question? Definatly try meguirs scratch X.

 

do not use scratch x for the 50 billionth time

 

Scratch Doctor works wonders!

 

If they're deep, as in you can feel them with your fingernail, no hand-use scratch remover is going to work. Chances are, to get them completely removed, your going to need to wet-sand the scratches down, then buff them out using a compound, then finishing polish. I would really only trust a professional auto detailer to do this as wet-sanding done by someone who isn't fluent in the process will usually cause more damage then what is repaired. Not to mention you need the correct supplies and tools to do it properly.

Although, pictures of said scratches would really help us diagnose how bad the paint surface is. Let us know.

 

I usually use a little buffing or polishing compound to take out small scratches from debadging!

 

oh yea, the people who make Liquid ice wax make Liquid Claybar that works awesome too

 

oh sweet Jesus tell me you are joking

 

I was about to say the same thing!

 

no i'm not joking, they call it liquid claybar becuase it contains the same properties and it does the exact same job, i swear it, try it out then when ou like it you'll owe me a *******

 

it contains the same properties as what? a claybar? so they have liquid clay now?

 

did mine with an old credit card and a hair dryer and had hardly any scratches. what was visible was easily buffed out. good luck to the op

 

i heard 3M scratch remover or rubbing compound

 

it's the same thing, just in a liquid form, ever heard of water and ice?

 

its the same thing as clay? i guess ive never heard of liquid clay for cars.

 

check it out, it's much easier to use than the claybar also.

just yank off and use a lil of that jizz to buff out the scratches. lol

 

ok listen. you have to pull contaminants out of the paint, which you will not do with a liquid like this. this is marketed to the general public as an alternative to a clay bar, when all it is really "good" for is a cleaner wax. two completely different things.

 

hmmm funny when i did it, it did the same thing as a claybar, i dont think they would market something under false claims, if you dont wanna take my word for it then thats your prerogative.

theres no need 2 call some1 a liar for the sake of arguing hombre

 

im not calling you a liar, im telling you that you are using the wrong product. but what do i know about detailing?

 

i dont know much either, but i do stand by products that work as advertised. and i like people to know what works.
