... a good method to remove scratches... or at least reduce them until I can get my Nismo Aero kit?

Any advice is welcome and greatly appreciated... many thanks!

 

a good detail job would get rid of hairline scratches but if they go deep your out of luck man

 

Meguiar's Scratch-X applicant. Nothing else.

 

a detail will do wonder but not magic... light ones will be cured...

Otherwise repaint will solve all your problems, plus you can paint whatever you want... Matte Black sounds good!!!!!

 

I think a full paint job is a bit excessive for a scratch, even if it's a deep scratch...

 

light swirls/surface scratches = good detail... deep scratches/gouges = airbrush touch up & blend... major paint damage = re-paint by body shop.

 

Thanks for the advice guys, I think I'm just going to suffer for a little while until I can order an Aero kit...

 

Mike, know anyone in the socal area that does good airbush touch up and blend?

gf scuffed the side of my nismo front

Scratch-X works good on light stuff. But a highly-skilled detailer can do wonders for tired paint. They are well worth the $200-300+ they charge if you want to make your paint look good.

Come spring time, i'm having my Black G35 professionally detailed by my friend.

 

Coming from a body shop, Airbrush touchup and blend, is simply blending a tiny spot on a single panel... you run a really big risk of discoloring that panel if there is ANY fading on the adjacent panels... Without seeing the scratch, its impossible to give you a really good answer...

as for g/f... time to trade her in on a new one...

 

Autotopia.com forums. Or the detailing forum here.

I'd have it buffed and polished. You might not get all the scratches out but you might get enough of them out to the point where it's barely noticable.

 

PMd you his info... the guy does amazing work - I've never had issue with discoloring or fading or any miss-match in color (he uses OEM touch up paint from airbrush)... I've used him several times and no one can tell where the previous damage was... he does work for OC dealers and was originally referred by Senik paint, who provides paint product for body shops... the guy is very good.
