What would be the best way to remove these semi-deep scratches. I`m able to feel them with my finger tips. This is on Miata hard top glass.
Cerium Oxide? Never used this before - is that strong enough? Is wet sanding glass possible?
I have a Flex DA polisher, Compound, polish, etc...
Is there a "thinner" brush head with the longer handle to clean federwells? The normal ones is a bit too thick to clean my fenderwell easily. Do-able, but difficult.
Any DIY solution to fixing theses DEEP scratches before I go out and spend $270 on a new pair of side skirts? I hit one of those landscape rocks yesterday making a right turn. Some scratches took it down to the bare plastic and some cut into some of the paint.
Would something like this...
Spring is here and that means the car gets a detail!
Wash & Clay:
- Dawn wash via two-bucket method and grit guard (normal washes done with Meg's GC)
- Meg's smooth surface clay
- Meg's Last Touch 1:1 as lube
- IPA wipe down
Wheels and fenderwell:
- Meg's APC+ 4:1
- Meg's Smooth...
Any tips to showing swirl/scratches easier on a silver (Acura TL 'Alabaster Silver Metallic' to be exact) car while polishing? Will a halogen work light help or just a waste of money on a light colored car? Florescent lighting, maybe?
Thanks for any feedback! :thx
1. Where can I buy a 500W SINGLE head halogen work light WITH a tripod at a B&M store? I only see the double head ones and it's a bit too much for my own car and detailing frequency.
2. I want to do a IPA wipe down before applying my LSP (ZAINO), do I use 70% or 90%? and do I dilute it with...
I know it's hard to give a definite answer without seeing it in person, but based on the picture I'm hoping some experts here can tell me if some SSR3 and a yellow LCC pad on a PC 7424 will correct this scratch (or at least minimize it significantly?)
I have a feeling it may need wet sanding...
