Please review my paint scuff removal technique
Some scuffs were stubborn so after a waterless wash and clay, I went to 2500,3000, M101, and then Essence since I already had that on a pad for another car I was working on. I was in a hurry and this was a quick job. My question is about alternative methods to remove the transfer.
A guy I know would just spray it with brake cleaner and wipe off the paint transfer. I'm wondering if this technique would be acceptable if the surface was washed again and polished. My instinct says no, but this quick method would probably leave more clear coat behind as opposed to my wet sanding.
Just wondering what the rest of you think.
I really enjoy this type of work but want to evaluate my methods and see where I can improve on efficiency and quality.

Pinnacle Paintwork Cleanser on a MF towel, scrub in the same direction as the transfer, not across it.
The cleaning chemicals in the product seem to break the paint transfer down faster than a compound or polish. The MF seems to reach down into the defects better than a foam pad.

I'll have to try that next time. I should of asked before all the sales ended.
Thanks for the tip.
