Ouch......

Ouch, did you really have to back into my bumper with your beat up red pick up truck buddy









First I chemically remove the paint transfer with "Tarminator"



After using "Tarminator" here is the results...



I then wet sand the damaged area with Mirka Abralon 2000grit



Damaged area all smoothed out after color sanding and ready for correction



I then reach for my Megs M105 for instant correction using only my D/A



My PCXP D/A with a LC Euro Cyan Hydro cutting pad is my go to combo for quick flawless results.



2 passes with the D/A and all the dullness from the color sanding was 100% removed



Final results.......just like it never ever happened....





Some final shots to reflect on.........





True reflections of this gorgeous paint!























Thanks for viewing!

What's all that white stuff on your paint? Seriously, looks great. When you wet sand, do you have to be careful not to apply too much pressure to avoid sanding through the clearcoat?

Lol...white puffy clouds.....When you wet sand always go least aggressive first, this is why I chose 2000grit. The clear coat is as thick as 2 cellophane wrappers combined from a cigarette box, therefore on a contoured surface like this you do not apply much pressure....Thanks for the good words!!!

Beautiful work...I would be scared to work on the Aston!! Good to know scuffs can be taken out if done correctly.

More pics of the Vanquish? I love these cars!

Came out pretty good. But why did you dry sand it vs wet sand?
