  • Scratch removed with Ultimate Compound...

    I did this black Audi yesterday, turned out really nice as you may have saw already. This morning the owner was at the store and when he came back out this was on the side of the car:



    Not sure how it happened, there isnt a ding so I dont think someone opened their door on it. Maybe a lady rubbed up against it with her purse or something, who knows. The owner was more concerned with how I was going to remove it. It also appeared to be more of a scuff than an actual scratch.

    I used Meguiars Ultimate Compound by hand with a yellow foam applicator pad. I then followed that with M66 Quick Detailer on the G110 to remove the slight hazing UC left behind.







    I think I was able to completly remove it. I looked from a couple of different angles and up close, as well as under the sun. The owner was very pleased since this would have taken away from the overall detail.

    This was on the gorgeous Audi S5? You said he was having it detailed before putting it away for the winter - guess he couldn't resist one last drive with it looking perfect, could he?? And look at what it almost cost him!!

        Yeah,

        I guess he is waiting on some sort of car cover and will be putting it away when that comes in. Hopefully he gets it before the car gets dirty again but if it does I will just simply wash it for him.

              Good work, Nick. I know it would be hard to resist one spin after you had it looking so great.
