Would you wet sand the mark and polish it? Obviously checking the thickness first though. I don’t think it’s bird droppings. I wash my vehicle weekly by hand and have never seen poop on that panel. I just don’t know how deep the etching is, as I’ve tried to cut and had no results
I said that so you could throw whatever opinions at me and I’d know what you were talking about. Also that I didn’t inflict the mark myself. No need to be a smartass lol. Also just because I’m a detailer doesn’t mean I’ve seen any and everything in the book
I hate that the pictures aren’t high resolution. I’m actually a detailer so I know what I’m doing. I’ve just now noticed this though. And it’s barely visible in person unless the perfect light hits it. Both doors on this side have been repainted as I was backed into last year. I just don’t...
Opinion on what this mark is? I’ve hit it with a medium foam pad and some compound & still don’t come out. It’s not as easy to see in person as it is on camera. I can’t feel the marks at all.
got home & noticed a rock chip. Used dr color chip(which I have numerous times before with no issue) and today it left like a weird film right on top it appears. You only see it from an angle and it’s not hazy or anything what could this be? Would a compound take this right off?
I used the meguiars 3 in 1 wax. Gonna research to see if has sio2. But from all the pics above, does it appear to be clear coat damage? In your best guess
Tried to get more pictures for you. Even used a flash to show that there is no metallic missing. I’m not the smartest car guy but this does not seem to be clear coat damage, as far as I can tell. I really don’t know what it is. Only certain angles pick it up. Other angles it’s not even remotely...
I used AIO with a pad and wiped off with MF towel. I didn’t add any extra pressure with my fingers. I don’t think I burned thru any clear as there’s no textual difference in the area to any of the rest of the hood. I tried the white wax and cloth trick and no paint on that towel either. So I...
I’ll try and take better pictures. Yeah it’s their modern steel metallic color. In the sun and most lighting it looks pretty normal. In extremely bright lighting you can really tell. I thought I had over polished it but I don’t own a DA and only used a pad and extremely non abrasive polish once...
This car has only been polished once, by hand with meguiars 3 n 1. Which isn’t very abrasive. The gloss is the exact same. It doesn’t appear to be duller than the rest of the area
