When I resprayed under the hood I taped the plastic with ductape to the car. Big no-no. It got sticky and stuck to the paint. I took a couple of pieces of with my finger nail and boy it took a while. I decided to try an old worn dorn soft scrub thiny, like a scotchbrite pad. Well that fucked the paint.

Is there compound that I can try and rub into the bumper and headlight? If not I will just have the autobody shop respray both, there are a couple door dings and a dent that need to be fixed anyhow...

Yeah, there is..Mothers makes it...I cant think of what its called right now(and im fixin to leave work, else I'd look for it), but it will just buff it out like a wax...Leaves it nice and shiny like new too...Next time(Hopefully there wont be a next time,lol) you should try GooGone, or Orange Clean...that worked for me when I did the same thing...

Meguiars Scratch X could take that off,it worked wonders on my car.

Yea I was thinking that would work, my friends used that on a t2 and wow it worked really well. There will not be a next time! I will try that stuff I.didin't if something else gets on the car. Thxs guys

if you try some over the counter stuff and it doesnt

work then when the car is running take it to a detail shop

or a body shop to have them buff it out for you



by the time you buy what I would suggest you might as well

have someone do it for you cheaper

i would go with masking tape next time its not very sticky

ok

I would hope he learned his lesson

damn, that sucks.... well as long as you can't see the blemishes from 10 ft. away, it's cool (the excuse i tell my brother for nicks and other stuff that happen to the paint)

Yea it looks fine far away, and at night https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png BUt I want it perfect...

Those scratches reminds me of my vert. After i parked it for a few weeks at my parents house the dogs decided to climb on the fenders/bumper. Post up if your able to get those out with anything becuase im like you my car must be perfect.

i hear ya, it's just some excuse i make up to feel better about the imperfections

well, you got a long way to go on that car...

?

he seems to think the body of this car is bad https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif

Sure looks nice complete ASS

I did that same thing when I painted the engine bay.. Left sticky duct tape crap all over the roof area.



But I had anticipated that, the whole car will be repainted in about a month, month and a half (after the motor is reinstalled, driving to the big paint booth).

meguirs scratch X dude! You saw what it did to my paint https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif
