Polishing Paintwork

Recommended Posts

There are a few small swirly scratches in the paintwork at the top of the cab. I am wondering if using an automotive polisher (like scratchx from Merguires) will cause any issues at all? Paint is standard Tamiya with clearcoat.

I use ScratchX all the time on my RC cars.   I also use micro-mesh sticks (bought from Amazon) and do spot repairs where the finest stick can provide near glass polish.. but I always follow up with diminishing abrasives like ScratchX at the end because.. well, I'm a weekend 1:1 car detailer as well.   Swirls and visible (obvious) imperfections are not allowed on my RC car paints with gloss finish.   

 

GL with your repair!
