Scratch Removal Cloth

[Dennis H]

Linda’s been grinding the 300C on every parking bumper she can find. I’m about to be scammed. I think. I’ll report back. This is right front, ahead of wheel.

No way. How is any cloth going to replace missing paint?

This is the correct non- scamming stuff. Pick your color and go

Ya... those ain't "scratches"!

You'll have to squint to see the connection. But it's there.

Do they make Toppik for automotive use?

You'll have to ask prince Harry himself!

I tried these and they scratched the paint. I suppose you could then cut and buff, but I won't use one again.

Joking aside, you're lucky the area is not in a very conspicuous location. You could sand that smooth, prime it and spray it with some Duplicolor Color Match paint, they make most modern paint codes. Then crack the seal on a can of SprayMax 2K Clear, clearcoat it and eventually wet-sand it. It won't be professional but it'll do the job and protect the bare metal again. The worst issue would be having to jack up the front of the car and work on your back to correct that area...and then letting Linda ding it up again.

I can tell you how to fix it but its just going to happen again so this is a quick fix.
Get your paint code and have a rattle can mixed, grab a can of primer also,
Scuff all that with 320 paper and clean it with a surface prep or even rubbing alky.
Prime , scuff again and paint, you have a nice body / bumper cover line there to tape off of the bottom edge of that roll over.
Our 300 has matching scuffs

you should buy Linda some glasses first and then repaint!

You’re right. Changed my mind.

Good news is, it's plastic and won't rust.

If it's a chronic problem, mask a line and paint below the mask, the same color as the plastic (should be black). She can hit whatever she wants and the paint already matches....

On all of our low down cars, I mask that area off and coat it with truck bed liner. Looks OEM professional and somewhat protects from minor scrapes. Easily touched up.
