Scratch X put in some fine scratches

pdsterns · 07-30-05, 03:19

I had some slightly frosted areas on the edges of the trunk, each area was on top corner edge, I noticed them after I picked up the car from the dealer. Anyway I've worked on them with scratch X and have gotten the frosty stuff cleaned up but I see some very fine scratches, only visable in bright sunlight, kind of like fine spider webs there now. They are in the direction that I worked the Scratch X (front to back). What should I use to try and remove these very fine marks?

What type of applicator are you using?

If they were caused by the Scratch-X, you can remove them with Scratch-X. You just need the right technique.

I used an MF pad, one of those sponges wrapped with MF, oval shaped about 1" thick x 2" wide x 4" long.

Broke out the foam pad and gave it a try. Worked it 3 times on both areas, all gone. I guess the softer pad is all I needed.

The only time I have noticed doing this is with Autoglym Paint renovater by hand under halogen, I then used the Scratch X and a foam hand pad to fix it.

I find it works best with a foam pad to help it finish down, also make sure you work it long enough and with some pressure so it breaks down. I have also cleared up fine marks like the ones you mention with Autoglym Super Resin ( again after usinng there Paint renovator before I owned any Scratch X).
