    Re: Bare Bones ?

    Bare Bones is great for wheel wells and visible suspension components. Gives nice gloss to areas usually missed during a typical detail.

    Re: Help with a scratch

    The scratch looks pretty light, not too deep. I've had great luck in dealing with scratches like that using M105 & M205 and rubbing it out by hand with a MF Towel. We just detailed a 1959 Alpha...
