Just had a lovely weekend with a lady.

BUT she didnt start the weekend off too well by placing her luggage bag on the bonnet of my freshly painted Chim leaving a rather disitinctive but maybe minor scratch.

Would it be best to take to a proffessional to sort out or is it something i could have a go at buffing and polishing out maybe?

I would use a clay bar on it initially.
Do you mean to clean the paint prior to any polishing?

lol..the Chimaera is near enough impossible to nail a chick in. Take the easy option and bend her over the wing hehe

anyway, we are getting off topic.

I think i will invest in some Meguires products and practice on the daily before going near my bonnet.
