Let me try to make this short...
got 2010 bmw (black sapphire metallic) a few weeks ago.
got some swirl/scratch on it (small area under the right passenger window on a coupe) probably from a buddy leaning against it when it was dirty. if I run my nail through it, I can "feel" the scratch/swirl.
here's what it looks like
i washed it 2 bucket
klass AIO by hand, klass glaze sealant by hand, the scratch marks are still there.
(i probably didn't apply the sealant right cuz it was too hard to remove so I just QDed the whole car)
1. i bought a PC with WG TSR/Glaze/Sealant 3.0, do you guys think I can remove these scratch marks with these?
or should I buy some XMT #3, #2, #1, 360?
meg 105/205 even?
2. since the car's new, am I messing up the paint when I PC the paint with Orange pad and swirl remover? would the spot that I PC look a little different than the rest of the car? should I just leave those scratches for now and wait another 6 month and do the whole car altogether?
advices are very much appreciated
