Sorry about this, I know there was a thread about some cleaning product but I need some advice.

My performance blue ST (1 year old) has some long sratches on the bonnet and although not deep, I would like to get rid of them.

I have bought some Diamondbrite stage 1 and 2 and will do that soon but I guess that isn't going to get the scratches out.

I also have a deep, 2 inch long, scratch on the back, just below the rear lights.

What is the best way to get rid of these marks and scratches before I apply the Diamondbrite?

I have been looking on another forum about these Porter cable polishers but don't fancy forking out over £200 for one (with all the other bits I need).

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Dont tcut do what is basically an abrasive paste, that you can use to remove the scratch, dont know how it affects the paint, bound to make it thinner but if you use it carefully it could work maybe?

or if they arent that deep what about normal tcut?

Caution with this paint, not so good for touch up, got a scratch in my front wing painted it and trashed it, need a pro to do it good for colour coding though,
