Hello All!
New here, and in hopes to be one day a detail guru like the many of you haha.. so far been reading up on some of the topics here and there on the forum, and I've some what kind of been confused as to what I should be using.. Since pictures are worth thousands of words, here are some to paint the picture:
Car: 2007 Honda Accord, Color: Gray
As you can see here, there are a few scratches here and there. When rubbing these surfaces, it feels coarse to the hand. Previously, I clay bared this area, then follow up with some Color x by hand but still they persist..pics above are same area.
So for this area would you guys recommend going over with Scratch X, then polish and wax? (on second though probably throw in some time for Swirl X too
..)
Secondly, this picture doesnt really show exactly whats going on, but basically it appears as though the clear coat is gone, and once again feels coarse to the touch. If you check the pic below, theres a slightly brighter silver spot below the handle and above the line (for a lack of better word). I dont know if the previous owner had buffed the heck out of that area, thus taking off clear coat or what.. so Im not sure how to restore this area.
It looks similar to this:
Lastly, I forgot to take pictures, but this is for the plastic trimming, I've so far used Mothers Black to Black to restore the trimming, but after a few car washes the trimming is back to is slightly damaged appearance. It looks though it has rough spots, would something like Black Wow fix this?
Thank you for your expert opinion. All help is appreciated
