Dumb question

TJSq · 07-22-2015, 02:22 PM

So I recently bought my 370z in really good condition, and now all of a sudden a bunch of scratches are appearing, what can I do?

Chuck33079 · 07-22-2015, 02:29 PM

My guess is they used some kind of wax with fillers and it's wearing off. Polishing should do the job. Go to Youtube and search for Junkman's videos.

There is also scratches now on the passenger window could there be like rocks or something in the seal, and some of them are deep

Glass can also be polished, but it's a little trickier.

Well regardless, Chuck seems to have you pointed in the right direction. No one knows paint correction like Junkman

TJSq · 07-22-2015, 02:50 PM

If someone was messing with my car, keying ect. what would you recommend? because the scratches look like thats whats happening
