Help w/ scratch

[yacob555]

Any advice on how to get rid of this scratch?

I'm getting a detail soon and I'd like to fill the scratch in before, Thanks

thats more of a scuff than a scratch imo

its thru the paint which means a touch-up

[yacob555]

use the search function. someone just asked the same question. there is a huge write up on autopia about how to do it.

Scroll about a third of the way down the page to paint chip repair. Very detailed instructions.

sorry, and thanks


i didn't really search cause i kinda figured this stuff was on a case by case basis

no worries. you need to invest in a PC or a flex as well. those swirls are really bad, or just pay someone to get it where you want it and you maintain it.


Here is what my 540/6 looked like before the PC took hold:




After some PC and SIP:

yeah, getting a detail on monday, hope to keep it maintained afterward, close up shows more swirls than you can really see, i'd just like to get the scratch "fixed" before the detail cause i don't think the guy's gonna address the scratch

You can bet he wont. Are you having someone tackle those swirls, looks like someone washed your car with a brillo pad!??
