Help! Sandpaper scratch on newly 'washover' car

**Tha_Mann** · February 21st, 2006 10:35 PM

guys help naman.

my car was newly painted and just got it out of the shop yesterday. this morning while im checking out the car napansin ko yung ibang panel eh may mga swirl-marks-like scratches na parang niliha. nde ko napansin nung kinuha ko yung car ksi medyo madilim dun sa shop.

question: ano ba dapat ang final 'stage' pag nag pa washover? top and final coat then buff ba? pano kaya nila matatanggal yun? parang mahirap kung i pa detail ko pa yun dahil newly painted pa lang.

pwede ko naman ibalik sa kanila yun pero kelangan alam ko din sasabihin ko.

tnx in advance!

pakita mo lang ung swirl marks siguro enough na un para ayusin nila yan.

the paint shop should remove all "orange peel" and sand marks during the compounding stage... then polish the car and never let them wax it... glaze lang for 3 months to let the paint breathe... any imperfection left will be permanent so bring it back to them ASAP...

Yeah, bring it back to them. Sayang naman yun binayad mo kung palpak yun gawa. Sino naman mag sasandpaper nyan sa bahay nyo? May kapatid ka bang bata na may access sa sandpaper?

tnx impulzz!

they did not remove the sand marks when they released the car. i returned the car kanina and explained to them that a newly painted car should not have those kind of marks.

tnx guys!
