I was washing the car at the weekend and noticed a lot of micro scratches on the bonnet and front bumper. Has anyone used the colour wax on these type of scratches? Is there any one in particular that’s most effective?

 

My car is  met carbon black so Im quite fearful to get it polished/buffed for fear it will turn out patchy/fade.

You'll be forever re-applying colour wax. It's like pan stick make up to cover wrinkles on an old granny.

If the car hasnt been machine polished before you shouldnt go through the lacquer... unless you're really heavy handed (or use a dremel).

I would say by some Menzerna Final Polish from Polished Bliss and a german applicator

 

Use the white side and apply the Final Polish

If its only minor scratches they will easy come out via this method
