Nicks and Scratches
 

Hey Pantera Lover. If you're handy and know how to use some tools,ie a high speed buffer then I would recomend you do it yourself. That is if money is an issue. If not then disregaurd the rest.
I had alot of salt water deposits and tried just about every type of car polish and cleaner out there. Finally took it too a pro and talked it over. My new friend simply said to save my $300 and do it myself. I bought an adjustable buffer/polisher/sander. Its available at Home Depots for around $150-175. You need adjustable rpm speeds from 1500-3500. Then I bought some of his professional grade polish and and a cleaner/rubbing compound. Just took it slow and actually did it a couple of times. Turned out great. Also I now have a buffer to work on my boat for waxing and the custom truck and other toys. A total time saver. Anyway just my two cents.

that sounds like a good idea, my issue is i actually have some "chips" i guess you could call them in the side that go a little deeper, would that also work for that or make it worse??

-thanks

If you want to do it yourself, fill the chips with SeaFit Gel Coat Quick Fix. It comes in a few colors and does not require mixing. Fill the chip, smooth the patch and let it dry. Rough sand the patch smooth and then polish it to a shire like in the last message. Good luck, GaryM
