fixing deep scratches in clear?

whoa. jeep? clearcoat? scratches???

yeah, leave the freakin' thing alone - it's a JEEP.

Billy Mays used to advertise a product for fixing scratches. cuhulin

That stuff is still available at FLAPS, I think.. You can also use a product called Zymol which works wonders at polishing out scrapes.

The only real way to fix this is, however, to fix it properly by touching up the scrape and spraying with clearcoat.

The clear coat on many cars is pretty thin. That is one reason, according to the body shop people around here, that it tends to whiten and flake off with age and exposure to the elements.

It used to be, we couldn't hardly get away from Billy Mays, or he wouldn't get away from us, on tv.I wish he had buckled his seat belt in that airplane.He was really a good old guy. cuhulin

Uh, he didnt die in a plane crash, IIRC.. He died of heart failure after a trip, and it was presumed that the heart failure was due to the rather large amount of cocaine in his body... Now, I hope I have this right.. Dont mean to speak ill of the dead.

An *exact* duplicate of one of Eugene Levy's characters on SCTV IMHO. A truly amazing bit of foresight. But then they did it in the days of K-tel commercials.

Several bits and businesses, all high pressure commercials.

Al Peck's used cars has to be my favorite, His body is moving all around, his hands waving all over the place and his tag line:" No song and dance here".

Well, maybe if he'd have fastened his seat buckle instead of using it to do all those lines....
