Good candidate for scratch X?

Didnt come out with Meg's Deep Crystal Paint cleaner or any type of Goo Gone or anything along those lines.


Think it's something scratchx will fix?

It doesn't feel deep at all. Looks like all surface to me. :/

 

If you can't feel it with you finger nail then scratchx is a good bet. If you can it's iffy. from my experience.

That is if you're talking about scratches in the paint. If you're talking about a scratch that on the chrome looking plastic. No, I don't believe it will work.

 

Hard to see on this crappy monitor in my remote office... is the scratch in the plastic chrome?

 

I can see it...yes good candidate. How I would do this?

Put some SX on a MF towel using your finger as the "point of contact" press hard using the product...this will create heat and that mark should come out.

I looks very familiar to something i worked on last weekend.

Came out with no problems at all, I was impressed.

If heat made it come out, we could use a blowtorch...

The heat and pressure will help to break down the diminishing microabrasives in the SX in order to help to level out the scratch. Additionally, SX is loaded with fillers that will help to conceal.

I would caution you to not press down with mega-might but rather start gentle and ramp slowly into more pressure. Once you've got it where you want it, you'll likely note that the SX (or your downward pressure) will have introduced some micromarring or similar. To snare that problem, work back out of it the way you went in to it.

In short, work in with slowly increasing pressure. Then, work back out of it starting a bit more firm working out to nearly no pressure.

So...

1 -- 2 -- 3 -- 4 -- 5 -- 4 -- 5 -- 4 -- 5 -- 4 -- 3 -- 2 --1


=RP=

 

Will try that, thanks for the advice.



And its not "Chromey plastic".....Its black paint, the tailgate handle is painted black, thats just reflections

 

Looking at it now on my laptop -- it's blatently obvious what it is. That just goes to tell me how unbelievably crappy that monitor is at my remote office. Wow.

Seeing it more clearly -- it still looks like a great candidate for SX.

 

Gonna go try out scratchX now

 

All came off no problem

 

Excellent! Glad it worked out for you!

 

After Pic!!!

 

Tomorrow morning after a wash maybe :P
