  • Need Help Removing Scratches

    Hi All,

    I'm new to this forum and am in need of advice on dealing with scratches on my car. It's a metalic red BMW and I've tried several things that didn't get them out. The scratches are on the roof above the front & rear windshields and on the trunk lid below the rear window....they look like "streams"...if that makes any sense.

    Here's what I've tried: clay bar, 2 different cleaners (Meguiar's medallion paint cleaner, One Grand Special Touch), 3M hand glaze and Scratch-X. I have tried both hand and 7424 applications without success.

    I'm told not to use abrasives on the problem...just use chemicals, but that being said, I tried some old Meguiar's fine cut cleaner I have via hand and that seems to give the best results yet...I followed with a couple of coats of Scratch-X.

    Meguiars has reformulated their fine cut to only be used with a rotary buffer...which I don't have and can't operate properly anyway.

    Anyone have any suggestions as to what I can try?

    Thanks.

    Hi DRT,

    Welcome to Meguiar's Online!

    I just read this post and have to step out for a while, but I'll post some suggestions when I return. I'm sure some other members will chime in also.

    Again, welcome!
