Remove Scuff mark front corner

Prak903 · 02-29-2024, 09:29 AM

Someone (or myself to be honest) left a nice gift on the front corner of my bumper. Scuff does not look too bad. I read online that you could take a clay bar and DA polisher to get it off, but I'm thinking I just take it to a shop and have them do it since they will already have the equipment to do it. Thoughts?

Clay isn't compound. The steps to fix that are high cut compound, medium cut compound, polish, sealer. If it's very minor medium cut compound might be sufficient. Something that small can be rubbed out by hand. This is what I use: https://www.amazon.com/Menzerna-400-...%2C220&sr=1-17

Took it to a local shop and they were able to make it good as new!
