a98pmalcolm Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 Thanks tomgeer. Yep no probs walker. I used a very course sand paper with a cork block to blend the dent and rub down the gashes. Then used 240 grit dry. Then 320 wet grit. Then 800 wet grit. Then 1200 wet grit. Then 1500 wet grit. Then 1500 with meguires metal polish. Then meguirs metal polish. All with lots of elbow grease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra Gaz Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Impressive work, mine need some serious love, I didn't think I could get grazes like that out, I will try now. If I ruin then they need to be refurbed anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
