Hi as the title says,
I have have some scratches.
Was hoping for someone to point in me the right direction
So I ordered a DA polisher kit with all their liquids and not to advertise some other company's thing, my friend recommended me to use either a 'magic eraser' or just some general 2500 grit sandpaper- letting me know both would abrade the paint and get the job done.
So anyway,
The bumper one doesn't catch on my fingernail 90% of the time, and seems to be really nothing more than
clean the car and dry it-> spray lubricant --> sandpaper/eraser ->compound-> use the DA polisher
But the front is messy with the fact that it goes from the scrape you see, down to the lowest corner of the car. Quite a few scratches down there but they're barely noticeable. It's not too much of a priority except the noticeable whites. The rest sort of blend into the giant grille so I'll take that. Hard to explain but a SUV drove right by and hit that corner from below the headlight down to the last bit of the front bumper. Catches on my fingernail the more you travel down. BUT, the white scrape really seems to just be on top of my paint.
This seems more difficult but would you all say, it's the same idea?
Can I do this with a 6.5" set of pads
Any advice for a newbie appreciated.
