Ouch! pareho tayo jc, nabangga din ng tricycle oto ko last feb. And I had a very very frustrating experience with HondQC sa repair....more similar to sir SG. I just had my car back after more than 1 month sa casa.

Anyway, please post some pics so we can help you.

ito po yung photo ng gasgas

Yun ba yung nawalan ng kintab na part? Baka kaya pang i buff yan hindi naman siguro totally na remove yung clear coat

Is Moms step 1 considered a polish?

it looks like the paint was rubbed and darkened. be it darkened or paint transfer, i've had success correcting that with 3m scratch remover. less than a minute by hand and foam applicator.

what polishes do you have on hand? until it's fixed, start with the least aggressive product and hand pressure towards the more aggressive.

The 3M scratch remover is the one that comes in sachets right? When I went to Ace, I felt the sachet and i could feel the big abrasives in it. Isn't 3M a bit too aggressive?

Agressive talaga yan 3m magaspang nga siya feel na feel mo yung abrasives parang megs #84 siya. Yung step 1 light polish lang siya and as far as i know chemical cleaner lang siya and hindi abrasive. Kaya siguro ng swirl X yan

swirl X, sige, try ko po. Chickselog, baka pwede pahinge ng 1 patak ng swirl x?

Sure thing sir JC. Sa next detailing EB na lang natin

BTW, judging from the pic parang pareho lang itsura nung sayo at nung sa akin na ganyan. Nung nabagsakan ng sampayan yung Vios naging ganyan din yung part na yun, parang naging blurred na something. Not sure though, judging from the pic lang.

May bagong gasgas na naman ako.

Will post pics after washing. Light horizontal scratches siya around dun sa takip ng fuel filler. I do hope mababaw lang talaga siya at makuha pa ng SwirlX.

sachet, yes. it's weak. it can't even remove the shallow line on my hood. 5 strikes, just a bit. and i hear it has fillers. it has minimized lighter scratches near the door handles.

but rubbed paint that looks like a bruise/burn? it did a fantastic job, and you can readily get it.

Ginamitan ko ng rotary at white pad yung scratch and natanggal naman yung long scratch pero hindi maganda yung finish nawala yung kintab sa may area ng scratch at naging dull yung paint. While nag switch ako sa swirl X same pad combo pa din natanggal din scratch pero very shiny na yung scratched area.

ano pwedeng DIY na claying block (di ko alam pwedeng itawag dito eh)? parang sanding block kumbaga. panghawak sa clay para mas sure na di mahuhulog sa floor. nakakatakot kasi pag bare hands lang eh baka mabitawan ko yung clay.

I tested 3m scratch remover sa sachet masyadong agressive need to follow up with a finishing polish pa.
