My 05 is just back from the body shop (what a nightmare, three attempts to fix a small issue /collision with a deer) On the last try, they at least got the paint and clear coat on with out runs, drips, modeling, bugs and dirt in the paint) How ever.... The fresh paint has a ton of swirl marks in it, from a hasty polish to clean up there mess.
I seem to remember not to wax fresh paint for some time to allow it to fully cure. Body shop said 30 days, a Body man at my wife’s place of work I trust (at a Ford Dealer) recommended 90 days. In either case I would prefer not to have the swirl marks on they hood, fender and door for the next few months.
Can I safely remove them from fresh paint? If so how? Using what?
No it's not going back to the body shop, though, if home removal by a show and shine newbie is not recommended, I'll find a quality place to have it done (note to self, shops with the word "Quality" in the name, are not)
