paint scratches
We recently inherited my Brother in laws 77 corvette. It is black. He had one of those bras on the front end and when I removed it there are some fine rub marks on the paint. Any suggestions on best way to remove them? This car only has 7800 original miles on it, and I want to get the paint in the front a shiny as the rest of the car.

a bra damages the paint, you might rub out some of it, but not all.
I threw 1... away after I discovered the damage they do to the paint.

This question would be better asked in the correct forum:

Hi c3,
Since your car still has acrylic lacquer on it you might want to try some Meguiar's Swirl Remover. Many auto stores carry Meguiar's products.
I use it on my acrylic lacquer because it's a VERY fine gritted compound, so if you apply it by hand it's pretty difficult to get into trouble with it.
It would be great to see some pictures of your LOW mileage 77.
Good Luck!

Alan
