  • pinstripes

    As a new member I hope I am in the right location to ask this question.

    I purchases a 2008 Shelby with black pinstripes. The water here in central Florida seems to have lots of minerals which leaves water spots. The black pinstripes had some water spots which did not come off with additional washing and waxing. I got the big idea to use some Turtle Wax compound cleaner which removed the water spots but in so doing left scratches on the stripes. Is there a product that can be applied to remove the scratches short of replacing them?

    Do you have any pictures of the scratches you can post here?

      Is this the Shelby GT500? I know there are a couple different Shelby packages Ford has and one of them has matte stripes that are not smooth to the touch. Are yours painted onto the car and flush with the surface of the paint?
