Learn how to buff car paint scratches out quick and easy, so you can fix paint scratches on your car yourself! I keep it simple (and cheap!) to buff out paint scratches by using the minimum tools and products possible to remove a car paint scratch.

To buff out scratches on a car, first you need to clean the car really well. Then apply the polishing compound to the panel and polish away until the scratch is gone. Finally, give it a good wipe down to check your progress and if all is ok, seal the paint with a good wax or ceramic spray.

Honestly, this is the most authentic video I've ever seen on youtube. All these videos here tries to convince people that scratches will 100 percent be removed from buffing when in fact, it doesn't. It just makes the scratches less noticeable. Unless of course you sand

This really works. Great tutorial. I'm a 50 year old woman with no auto care experience and I was able to do this.

Clear, concise and spoken plainly. Great work. Subbed.

I usually use the touch up stik 24hrs before, then polish over everything next day !

Terrific vid with many great points I didn't get from others!

[jmeyer]

Appreciate you saying the American equivalents. Nice presentation. I was nervous about polishing my car, but I'm more confident having watched your video.

[jimabaloyan]

Nice, Thanks for making this vid just what I need.

On the USA link, do you think it’s OK to use the foam pads that come with the dual action polisher 🤔

Thank you for the great video Phil. I used to live in the UK. I lived in Glasgow.

You explain very well, TY. I was told to keep the buffer off of ridges/peak, you went over them easily. Methinks I should not worry but I won't bear down on them.

[mahireliyev]

Clear explanation. everything on point

[diverdave]

put a towel or garbage bag over the tire and apply some Armor All type product to the black plastic bumper BEFORE you fire up the ole buffer !

[marsantos]

would it be a good idea to add a thin layer of clear coat over the buffed scratches?

Your video gave me confidence to work on my car over the weekend. Thanks!

So well explained. Much appreciate your style and approach. Looks like the Way Joy polishers are no longer available in the US. Any other suggestions? Also how many watts/RPM etc? I'd be happy to use a referral link if you update it to support the channel.
