What to Use to Remove Faint Scratches from Bay Door? - Jack and Liz Pearce - 11-04-2007 12:14

Howdy.
Liz discovered 2 faint parallel scratches on one of the bay doors. The
scratches are about 14 inches long but they are not very deep. The
coach is dark teal and these scratches are light teal. What can I use to
buff out these scratches?

TIA,
Jack

Suggestions...
Could be the lighter color is what transferred to your coach. Start with wax
intended for automotive paint. Put a small amount of wax on a wax pad or
terry towel and rub a very small area first. If that gets rid of the lighter
color, great. The scratch will still be there but less noticeable when the
lighter color has been removed.

Next, maybe, a very fine rubbing compound followed by the wax. Experiment in
a small area fir
st. If that doesn't work, contact an automotive detail mobile person and ask
if they can remove scratches.

What color is this area? I use a polish put out by Turtle Wax that
has a paint pigment added and it really works great. The container
has a special marking pen attached to the product that has the same
color as the Wax and it also works very well using the liquid wax.
Very easy to use and looks pretty good after the application. By the
way my color is Black and that really shows scratches. Jon
