Will This "Buff Right Out"?

blown5.0 · 02-07-2013, 03:24 AM

Hey guys,

Looking at a 370z in great condition. One issue with the paint is that the owner put black foam on the side of his car because his wife had a tendency to open her X5's door very hard. He didnt drive it much and the foam left some marks on the fender flare. It seems superficial and im guessing it should buff out no problem, but I wanted to make sure before purchasing.

Thoughts?

Yes, it appears it will, but it's hard to estimate what kind of damage may be underneath.

I would try using a claybar and see how much you can pull out of the paint before doing any buffing.
