kazman Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Hello. Typically, 2 weeks after having my bonnet resprayed i have a strange pink spot about 1mm in size on it I noticed it when i finished washing the car. The spot will not come off by rubbing a fingernail over it, but it certainly feels like it is proud of the paintwork. I am fairly confident it was not there immediately after the respray (and i dont think they would have sprayed a pink coat). So with that in mind, cany anyone advise me on what i should try and use to remove it? T -Cut? Or should i be looking at something else. Whatever it is, it seem really fixed on. Thanks.

srobrien Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Try a clay bar, halfrauds sell a meguiars kit. Should do the job. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazman Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 Is a claybar able to provide the extra abrasion required that a fingernail etc cannot then? Never used one before! Is it all fairly self explanatory regarding its use? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never used one before!Is it all fairly self explanatory regarding its use? Thanks. In a word yes. Its very easy to use and you will be surprised what it can remove. Make sure you use plenty of lube. On a side note have you tried a bit of polish or a paint cleaner like lime-prime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazman Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 The only polish i have is T Cut. I'm a bit hesitant to use it as i have removed clear coat before with it (though that was trying to get a deep scratch out). I see halfords do a meguiars kit for £25.... is that the sort of thing i require? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkie34 Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Don't use the T Cut. Try the clay bar kit as mentioned or if that fails Tardis available here http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog ... clean.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
