Default Paint correction near Philly

I bought my black 2005 a few months ago, everything is great except it has quite a few clear coat scratches that really irk me on a sunny day.

I had the car detailed, but I don't think they were experienced enough with the paint correction process, and I've seen guys on here who do it pretty successfully.

Anybody have any suggestions?

It's a shame that you are a little far from me. I have been getting better and better with detailing throughout the years. With the formulas and machines that are out there now the process is not as bad as you would think. It is very time consuming, though. I use Adam's products and get ridiculous results. If you have a black car and minor imperfections bother you, get the product and handle it yourself. Watch some YouTube videos of "Junkman" or any of Adam's videos and enjoy it!

Yeah, I'm sure with enough trial and error and enough research I'm sure I could figure it out. With an infant at home, and a self employed business, time is more of a commodity than money at the moment. At this point I'd rather just get a professional to get it done.

I can maybe help you. However please be aware that some marks are better left alone. If they are too deep you will compromise the clear coat (which is your UV protection-even removing too much can cause a problem)

I'm not a professional, but I can definitely help. I detail more so as a hobby on friends and family cars. Send me a PM if you're interested.
