I need some help with this guyz. Ok i was on the last car of the day,everybody was in awe of my work....until!! I was puttin some wax on this Chinese lady car(2009 Altima) & she had those faux buick fender vents(pictured) on it and low & behold the first one came off. It was double sided tape on it but worn. So i decided to KRAZY GLUE it on. I made a slit with a razor cuz it wouldnt come out properly. Well TOO MUCH came out and leaked on the car. WHAT A MESS. So i wet sanded it down & got the majority off but i has the sctratch look to it.

What can i use to get it back they way it was new. The vent is on the car but the scratchy mess is still visible.

I have 3M heavy compound // Meguiars Ultimate Compound // Meguiars Cleaner wax // Zymol Cleaner wax // Dewalt hi speed buffer will be purchased tommorow.

Could someone PLEASE list the steps needed to satisfy the customer

Go to a hobby store and get some of the bond breaker for the modeling super glues. they make this and it breaks down the glue....test it because I don't know what it does to paint.

Nail polish remover will do the same thing.

Nail polish remover will do the same thing. What does that do to paint? Is it safe? smells nasty....probably a cheaper alternative than the bond breaker.

Not sure, haven't tried it, but like you said, do a test area first.

If I'm not mistaken, most of these products share one common element; acetone. This will breakdown and dissolve the glue but as others cautioned, do a test spot somewhere unnoticeable just in case..

a few specs but i will wet sand it down some more to remove the rest.

Do i use the heavy compound with the hi speed to even the surface?

What wax i should use to blend the paint back to its NEW condition?
