I have some scratches, nothing major but looks like maybe the privious owner parked the car next to a bush and scratched the door a little. Is there anything I can do just to do simple touch up scratches? The car is black and it sticks out pretty good! I dont need to do the whole car, just a tid bit here and there. thanks for any recomendations!

 

how deep are the scrathes? if u put water in it and the water gets trapped inside then its deep, if not some buffing compound and polish should take it out

 

Yea i tried scratch x on my car but didnt work to well. it did some but not what I was thinking it would do

 

na water doesnt stick in the scratches, they are not to deep at all. Is there something I can put on like a rag or something and rub in with my finger or something?

 

yeah the scrath went through your clear coat, i think that only works just on your clear coat surface, and thats what i mean by putting water, because the water will tell you if it went through the clear coat or not

ok so the scrath isnt deep, get some rubbing compound and polish and use those, it should come out, usually does for me

 

Any brand particular?

 

hmm, the one i use i buy by the gallon because i work with my uncle at our body shop, and its called Malco, but not sure

 

I saw several different rubbing compounds at walmart and autozone I would think any would sufice wouldnt it being not that deep?

 

Ill have to go down this weekend and check out autozone and get some stuff. They are just annoying but I dont think any are that deep, alteast not that Ive noticed while washing it.

 

yeah and make sure u add a polish or wax after ur done useing the compound, becuase it contains sand particles, so it sands ur clearcoat a little, and ur gunna wanna put some wax or polish on there

 

you think some rubbing compound would help with these

 

i always use it on my car and looks great

 

Ill have to take a look!

 

Same here couldnt be any worse than mine is now. And i already have the paste and the polish for after. + its gonna be sunny all week so no better time than now
