I saw some new scratches on my car and I can't find the link to previous topics concerning this.

If you know where the link is on how to get rid of scratches, please post it.

If you know how to get rid of it, then just tell me here.

Thanks.

Depending upon how deep the scratches are you have a few options:

Clear coat scratches can be buffed out using a few scratch removal compounds that detail shops use. I can post the one I used yesterday when I get back home to look it up. These compounds are clearcoat safe, and can be rubbed in by hand and buffed off like wax. The end result is a removal of the surface scratches and buff marks in the clear coat, but deeper scratches only get minimized.

Larger/ deeper scratches will probably require some sort of touching up. Chips are easier as they can be filled in and the "blob" removed with a few available compounds. It supposed ly works on some scratches too. Look up http://www.langka.com fro more info. Otherwise, scratches may require an airbrush or one hell of a hand if brushing. Good luck.

Hey yu888, have you tried Langka yet?

I went to their website and it looked pretty good. I wonder if it's too good to be true.

Let me know if you've used it (Langka) before because I am going to order it soon.

Thanks for the info.

I just tried it on my sister's accord (gotta fix the little stuff to sell it) and she had a scratch on the bumper. I touched it up this weekend, and received the Langka today. It works, but be careful...it is strong. I ended up taking more than I wanted off, so back to touch up paint. I think it will look better that if you just touch it up or spray it. I'd say get it and try it out. It might take me a few tries, but Ithe parts that did not come off look good!

If the scratches aren't that deep, more like surface scratches, use 3M's Glaze w/the foam polishing pad. That $hit works miracles. Just did my neighbors black Dodge R/T truck and his shine is sooo deep. Be sure to lay a good coat of wax after you're done.

Hmm....sell for a TL-S?
