Just a thank you to this forum, esp. Scottwax, BumpersPlus and the others who responded to my request for help.



As suspected, the detailers recommended by the body shop did nothing very helpful. But they didn't mess the car up further, either.



This weekend, with a borrowed 9" Sears orbital, I set the car right. Dawn Washed, clayed, then 3M SMR with the orbital (making sure to 'flash off' to a good gloss). Followed up with new base coat of ZFX enabled Z5. Whew! I feel like I got her close to where she was prior to the whole sad episode. In just the right light, some scratches are still visible, but mostly the car looks fantastic. SMR is a great product.



I've learned so much on Autopia, especially from the professionals. Thank you!
 
Pics...um.



Believe it or not, my SO has a digital camera, but I don't know how to upload and send to the web!



It's going to be cold and rainy this weekend. But the next clear weekend day, I hope to layer another coat of Z5 and then 2 of Z2, click some pictures and then spend the entire rest of the weekend trying to get the camera and computer to play nice together.:argue



Maybe I can even take some artsy-fartsy fancy shots, as so many Autopians are wont to do these days.
