Remember not to press too hard with the buffer, you don't want to burn through the paint and make it worse.

Try some scratch/swril remover first. You can pick it up at the local auto parts store.

Thanks for the heads up on the buffing process. I have a high power and a slower orbital. I will post a pic or two when I get to doing this (in the spring) so you'll can see how it comes out. Fingers crossed.

@ SLCCHEVY, I will try that first. Maybe that's something I can do sooner. Shouldn't cost much.

@ Holland, what part of CT you from?

Thanks again folks.

always use a clay bar before buffing to get all the road grim and small stuff off the truck before u buff. helps with not having more scratches.

So did that actually happen from the car wash, or was that just when you noticed it? If it was the car wash, I would definitely be going bakc to talk to them. They probably won't do anything for you, but it would be worth telling them that something is wrong with their wash...
