Default dealer did a bad wetsand job on my new vett what do i do

To make a long story short I bought a 07 lemans blue coupe and after 2 washes many things went wrong with the paint.Well I got it back from the dealer the second time today and my car has scuff like markes in it from where they wet sanded it and I don,t want to take it back so they can mess it up more so what should I do to get the marks out?You can only see it when its in grage lit area and it,s a smALLER AREA.

Got any pictures?

It would be easier to judge if we could see it.

It could be as simple as buffing it out. Or it may need to be sanded with a finer grade of paper and then buffed.

Hopefully they applied enough pay so you don't buff through the finish.

if they are marks you can only see under a light then they most likely aren,t too bad . i would find a good detailer in your area and let him hAVE at it. he should be able to take it out with some meg 80 or 83 then finish it off with the new stuff from 3m in a black and powder blue bottle finese it 3 . this stuff is magic on dark colored cars.but have a experienced detailer do it . ask around with people in your area and one or 2 names will keep popping up and go to that guy. then follow his instructions on care of your paint. dont be afraid to ask they/i am usually glad customers want to know how to do it right.hope this helps
