    also ran over a tire on the freeway. didn’t even try to swerve because i wasn’t trying to hit a car. as much as i hated the effects the tire did to my car, i’m glad i didn’t try to swerve around it. i’m gonna try using nail polish remover tmr and see how it works.

    Hey great video! I got into an accident a few years ago and have a pretty big like rubber smear from hitting the other cars rear tire. Would this work despite the black smear having been on the car for so long?

    Isnt acetone the last thing you want to use on car paint? It strips paint bad

    • @Mechaniclyfe
      @Mechaniclyfe  Před 3 lety +2

      No the acetone will not strip the clearcoated paint , unless you are talking about very poor quality paint and some spray can paint or unclearcoated paint

      You do want to neutralize the chemical with soapy water immediately after you remove the scuffmarks.

      On catalyzed clear it is fine to use, single stage paint will be removed.

    Anything other than acetone I could use for the scruff marks

    • @Mechaniclyfe
      @Mechaniclyfe  Před 3 lety +2

      Nail polish remover or mr clean magic eraser sometimes works too

    • @STILLNIGHTPEARL
      @STILLNIGHTPEARL Před 2 lety

      I like to use lacquer thinner, it’s a little stronger and it doesn’t evaporate as quickly as acetone.

    great video! you think i can just run my truck thru a car wash after i use acetone? plan on combining with wd40

  • @debsh5412
    @debsh5412 Před 2 lety

    Good cleaning tips and demonstrations, but if I might make a suggestion, you repeat the different tips like 4, 5 or 6 times. If we don't catch one of your tips the 1st time, we can rewind ... this would shorten the video, but still provide info...I know I look at the 2-3 min. videos 1st rather than choosing a 12+ min. one. Overall, good video ... thks. D

    What do you mean by “compounding” them? I’m about to go to my mom’s tomorrow night and I have a very similar scratched surface as the one you have on your bumper and I was wondering where I could buy the acetone and the wax asap

    • @Mechaniclyfe
      @Mechaniclyfe  Před 4 lety

      Acetone can be bought at Walmart or any major branded stores other than target, you can use nail polish remover(acetone) also works it contains acetone as well, compound is short for compound polish , any store that sells automotive polishes will have some compound polish , recommend using Meguiars ultimate compound polish for your scenario, just rub it on with a cloth over the affected area and then remove it with a cloth and your done

      Omgg😱 acetone worked for me! I used wet wipes instead of dry tissue paper. Darker and deeper scratches required more amount of acetone. As acetone is abrasive, wear gloves to protect your fingertips. Thank you so much for this life changing hack. You're the man, bro!💯💪

    If I use Nail polish remover so I still need to polish and wax my car after or is that only with acetone because it's a strong chemical?

    • @Mechaniclyfe
      @Mechaniclyfe  Před 2 lety

      Still need to polish the car , acetone will remove any polish protection on the car and full the paint out some so polish needs to be done
