Re: Difference between buffer trails and burn?

Buffer trails are just marks that you see in the sun or artificial lighting. They're usually easily removed with a PC, although really terrible ones might require a rotary to fix. They're in the very upper part of the clearcoat.

Burn is when an edge or other area of the panel is literally "burnt" through the clearcoat. You'll notice it as a lighter patch or a patch with no gloss. It cannot be repaired without paint.
