Paint off bumper - Richard_H
Hi all

I drive a company Mondeo which I really like

While in the supermarket, somebody kindly left a red streak on my rear bumper which has really upset me to no end :)

Is there anything I can use to remove this, I'm not talking bodyshop perfect but just to get shot of the mark

Thank for any help (Not get a new bumper thanks)

Assuming the paint is off the other car just use a cutting a little brasso and a clean cloth and you will soon get if off. Regards Peter

First I'd try to remove it by applying and buffing with a few coats of normal polish. If it hasn't damaged the plastic this should remove most of it.

You could then try T-Cut if this doesn't work but don't be too vigorous or you'll remove some of your own paint! Finish it off by applying normal polish again.

I noticed a long black line down the side of my motor last week. Autoglym polish removed it all without fuss.
