Wow very useful. I'd love to do this myself but I'd be too scared to. I'd definitely need someone who did it before to help me out so I could at least see how it's done. Last thing I want is to fudge it up and regretting it. No sig for you! Come back one year! |

just a little info for ya. before you try this on your own car i would try it on something else because if ya dont know what you are doing this little scratch can cost you alot of money because you can very easily sand right through the clear coat and start sanding into the base coat and if that happens then you will have to take it to a body shop to get them to repair it. just thought id let ya know |

Yeah that's why I'd rather have someone who's done this before help me with this cause the last thing I wanna do is screw something up. No sig for you! Come back one year! |
