About this video

Buffing out scratches and scuffs requires a car polishing tool and some compound. The polishing tool comes with different textured sponges to do layers of polishing. For example, light scratches will require a low powered sponge. Whereas, deeper scratches will require sponges that create better friction against the glass or paint. If you want to buff out scratches then practice on someone else's car who has nothing to lose. Buffing out scratches incorrectly can cause paint burn and will require a touch up and more buffing. So, if you want to see how to buff out scratches then watch this video. We have some pro-tips sprinkled throughout the video. #cars #diy #howto Got car questions for diycarhunters.com?
