removed deep scratches

scratches were enough to catch your finger nail

meguiars medium cut
meguiars #80
poor boy's polish
ps21 wax
Porter Cable

cleaned up a good portion but you can still see it if you go up really close. it was a bit hard to focus the camera on the scratch afterwards because of the reflection...

before


after

I first worked the medium cut by hand.. then I use the porter cable with the medium cut. Didn't take too long.. probably 20 minutes or so to use the rest of the products.
