Tree Marks On Bumper (ARB Summit)

Hello. I was wondering if anyone can offer advice on how to effectively remove some tree marks I have on my ARB Summit bumper. I unfortunately hit a tree while doing a tight turn on a trail and it left some marks. It was done at a very low speed and I am still kind of new to this, only the third or fourth time I have been on trails and my first on this particular one.

I've washed the car and taken it through a car wash but the marks are still there. If I scratch at them with my fingernails they start to come off. I don't believe the bumper is necessarily scratched, it's just that the tree is stuck on there.

This is the bumper I have installed on my Tacoma. I'll post some pictures later today when I get off work. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks!

(feel free to give me shit for hitting the tree)

Use some flat black paint

 

Rock it.

 

Rubber eraser wheel.

 

Isn't that what steel bumpers are for???

 

Pretty much. I'm not complaining. It did its job, but that doesn't mean it has to forever look like that.

 

Try a nylon brush.

 

I think pressure washer would work great.

 

ARB makes touch up paint for thier bumpers. It's available on their website.

 

love ARB stuff. This makes me love it even more. Can't wait to have the same bumper!

 

I didn't realize they made this! Thanks! I've got some dings on mine as well.

 

Probably need to stop being a whimp and actually scrub the area with some elbow grease. Use a nylon brush or something similar. If you can't muster the forearm strength, maybe ask your wife.

 

Coming in hot!!

 

yikes

 

Thanks for reminding me why I don't often visit the 3rd gen forum.
