my carelessness = rust spots

2LO4SNO · 06-22-2009, 06:20 PM

my paint is full of small rust spots from cutting my truck up, (bagging it) not cleaning the metal dust off and then leaving it outside in the rain and sun. i tried to clean the hood quick with some soap and sponge but it didnt help. has anyone else ever been as careless as me and have this happen? acid bath and a buff job maybe? i also have vinyl stripes and they look like shit also, think my glass is etched pretty good as well..

thanks

Sounds like you need a clay bar

And that's why you cover your shit while cutting and welding, kids.

i started out pretty good, then i saw some spots and said f it. pearl white with some red scallops might be in line.

like my super 10 said, you are going to need to go over it with a clay bar.

Did not try and think that you need to use clay bar.
