Paint Runs

Hey, just got my car back from having some of it painted and i noticed 2 little runs about half an inch long and maybe half a pencil width wide... is there any way to git rid of them without putting my car back in the shop for another 2 days? its not worth the 2 days without a car but it might become an annoyance when it comes time to shine up the car..lol

lemme know what ya think
thanks,
nick

i would think you could wet sand it down....but that is gonna kill your clear coat....you could wet sand it then get it cleared again! ...it all depends on if the run is in the clear or in the color...

agreed. take it back. You paid for a quality paint job, you need to make sure you get one. If for nothing else, those are a dead giveaway for a repaint when its time to sell.

As long as the runs are in the clear they should be able to wetsand them out and buff it back to shine..
