So I lightly scratched my car (about 2 inches). I mistakenly thought to use my touch-up paint rather than scratch-X. the paint dried, and now looks worse.

is there a quick and easy way to fix this?

thanks!

 

razor blade...

 

Prepsol dissolves most touch-up paint. It's a chemical most body shops have on hand. Not sure if you can buy it at a store.

 

epic fail

 

not really epic...

 

really.. razor blades to remove paint drips... or what the OP is describing... sounds like paint drips..

 

Well in my book its an epic fail...

wetsand with 2000 grit then buff out the area.

 

Post some pics. And always try a rubbing compound first for surface scratches.

I would get masking tape and tape around the touch-up area.

Then wet sand the area in-between the masking tape.

After you get rid of most of it, you can probably just buff it out to blend it all back in.

 

thanks for the help ya'll.

I used a sand-paper block (one of those soft ones from home depot), and buffed it out, then applied scratch-x.

I'll give her a good waxing this weekend.
