    We really need to see it to at least have a chance of telling :D

    Oh, and there isn't any wax, polish or compound in the world that will remove dents :D

    Is it in the bumper? (nakikita yung parang itim?)

    Hmm, I have a 6-inch long scratch on the lower side of my front bumper. It's not in the underside so it's still visible from some angles, which is why I kinda want it removed.



    My first option was to have it touched-up. I asked my friend how much it'll cost in their family's paint shop (The Wet Look), mga 3k daw.

    Are there any other cheaper alternatives? Kung wala, I can leave it there. I'm just being a bit OC about it

    is it normal to still have remaining swirl marks after having a vehicle exterior detailing by a shop? 6 hours nila ginawa.

    Its not normal. The person lacked experienced in removing swirl marks or did the damage themselves.

    wtf. sand the spiderwebs

    jut, still try to touch it up. Best to use a bit of putty but if you don't wanna.. the process is clean, touch up, sand. Rinse and repeat then polish. When done, since it is very close to the underside it probably is noticeable only by you. If you can't then prepare your 3k.

    A great detailer will have a variety of cutting pads and compounds to remove swirl marks.
