I created a thread awhile back about what use to remove my scratches, I tried Mother's brand scratch remover, turtle scratch remover, no luck? Anybody out there have any other choices? It's a fairly new truck, tuxedo black, scratches in the clear coat. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.

 

How deep are the scratches you are talking about? can you feel them with your fingernail, or are they just surface swirl marks? Pics help.

 

Why are you starting a new thread? Go find the old one and reply to it so we don't have to guess about the whole history and recommendations!

 

Here is the other thread. Not much in it.

I'd check with a professional detailer who does wet sanding. They will be able to assess the damage and decide the best approach to correcting it.

 

Wetsanding is an absolute last resort.

 

I stand by my recommendation in that other thread.

 

Exactly... Least aggressive to most aggressive...

 

Their not deep enough to feel with your fingernail. And I'll get some pics as soon as I can.

 

I agree!

There are any number of combinations, but that Meguairs seems to have the whole package. I have the Porter Cable DA, which I believe it is the same with the Meguair name on it. Three stage Wolf pads, cutting, polishing, and finishing. Along with Meguairs Pro 9, 82, and NXT. I ahve others, but that usualy works for me. I had a black 2002 F150 and 2006 Corvette and I never had problems with swirl marks.

I don't think any of those scratch polishes work. IMHO.

Last but not least, a good detail shop should be able to help.

 

That's why I mentioned a pro detailer. They'd be in the best position to assess it.

 

Post some good direct sunlight pics, and I will make a recommendation based on what I see.

GLC linked a good suggestion in the other thread you started.

Since you are the owner of a black vehicle, you have two choices if you care about how it looks.

- Learn how to do this correctly yourself

- find a good pro to take care of it for you.

I have found this system to be quite reliable. It just plain works. I was a little pessimistic at first when the salesman was telling me about it, but it is a very effective method.

 

Black is not a color, it's a part time job
