Hello from Canada.
Finally getting some good consistent weather and I`ve started to start detailing my car from the long and harsh winter. I have quite a bit of paint chips that I want to fix up but I could use some advice.
I have many minor chips and one major chip, which is more like a slight rub/scratch on my bumper from bumping into something. I bought a small repair kit at my local automotive store called Dupli-color. The kit includes: a putty filler, primer, clear coat, sanding paper, and a compound.
So I washed my car very ligthly yesterday to get the majority of the dirt off. I plan to claybar my car today or tomorrow then proceeding to fix the chips.
My question is: after I fixed the chips and sanded the surface, should I apply a paint cleaner or a polish first? or both? What kind of applicator should I use? I have some foam pads that I use to apply my sealant. Should I use that? I want to be blend in the scratches from the sanding.
