BAD scratches in my car

[dpreuss]

Well, today when I got back from our other farm, I noticed that the electricians we hired to put in our new garage door opener, then i noticed that he had not backed my car out of the garage, even though the keys were in it! I quickly went to investigate, and noticed he had the ladder resting against my paint, and when he was working, it moved around and put a whole bunch of scratches in my rear door. Needless to say, I chewed his ***. Anyway, the scratches are not through the primer, so I think I can take them out with my 1ZUPP, but the problem is, I just ordered my pads for my PC today. I was just wondering if I could use the stock pad that comes with the PC to apply all three 1z polishes to the area, and wash out the pad in between each polish. Do you think this would work? I really want to get rid of those ugly scratches as fast as I can. Thanks.

If you're going to use UPP, I doubt the pad that came with the PC would provide enough bite to do the job. I'd complain to the company and see if they will at least cover the costs of some products to fix it. If they had to pay a "pro" to fix the scratches, it would be $100-$200 easily.... tell them you'll do it yourself, but need $50 or so to cover the products you'll have to buy that you don't have (i.e. your pads and anything else you might need like some MFs or such).

Yeah, the PC pad is pretty lame that they give you. If you don't feel like waiting I would look for the local body shop supply as they will usually carry polisher pads. And I would definately hit the painters up for some money to cover the scratch.
