  • Repairing/disguising clear coat chip/scratch...

    To go on a bit more about the SLSMG I picked up, it's got a pretty noticeable mark in the clear coat on the front of the body that I am wondering how to minimize...




    I don't have it yet so I can't really say what it's like in real life but is there any way to at least get the apparent "whiteness" out of this blemish so it at least blends in with the rest of the finish a bit better?

    I hooked up my accelerator pedal in my car to my brake lights. I hit the gas, people behind me stop, and I'm gone.

      3m mild cut rubbing compund/ swirl remover, finish it off with a nice buffing cloth and some turtle wax ice

        I usually use cyanoacrylic glue (super glue) to fill my chips, psray a shot of accelerate on it, so it hardens in seconds, wet-sand smoothe, buff, and shine.

          CA drop fills are great, but the first order of business would be to get all of the chipped mess out of there so you don't seal the whitish appearance under the CA glue.
