OMG Please help
Recently I've found a scratch on the side of the hood, and I'm so pissed! I dont know how I got this, but I think it's a rock chip, although I dont even know what most rock chips looks like. I just DONT know what to do right now. I'm quite a newbie with cars, and I kind of know that a detailing shop can help, but I have no idea where to find one and was hoping I can deal with this myself. I use the zaino products and I remembered that there were some swirl marks remover but seeing that it's the winter now I cant apply them yet. Anyone have adivce/ideas? sigh, much appreciated.

Re: OMG Please help
If it really is a rock "chip" you have then Zaino won't help much. The Z5 is meant to fill in light swirl marks.
I imagine that most detail shops you go to will say they can buff it out but personally I don't recommend using a high speed buffer unless absolutely necessary as you will reduce or even remove the clear coat in order to "blend" the scratch or chip.
I would try going to a reputable body shop first and asking their opinion. It won't cost you anything for them to look at it.
Also, if you have a garage for your car you *can* apply Zaino in the winter as long as you are using the ZFX drops. It shouldn't be too hard to keep the garage around 40 degrees F to apply (and not suffer frostbite).
