Sons of beaches..... FIXED !!

so you got a free steel bumper?

oh no...

 

Scraping the passenger side

Any chances it was you? I've done it against my garage more then once

 

I scraped that exact same spot. At the dispensary.

 

Yeah, after a few...

 

No I am anal about how / where I park. I typically back into spots where there is concrete or a planter-tree
or striped handicap spots on that very side. Then I can ( and other people too ) can open up the drivers door
full monty with no chance of dinging. And I park on the street so that scrape would be on the sidewalk side.

Somewhere sometime somebody brushed up against me, perhaps a shopping cart? I dunno I'm gonna do some
careful washing when the sun goes down this evening and see if I can 'help' it out.

 

I like people the same way I like my Tea.

In a bag, underwater.

 

There’s a place in NJ that will repaint it for only $600!

 

Thanks to all the suggestions on fixing this up. Whatever happened at least there was no 'dent' ...

I gave it a nice soapy wash with some Meguiar's Gold and gave it a soak and a scrub and got about 60% off.
Then I hit it with some Wheel/Tire Cleaner that I keep around. I've used that on my little camper and it really takes
crap off and leaves a nice clean feel. That took it to about 98% clean. Then I used a bit of rubbing compound on it,
wiped it down, hit it with some spray wax and presto - I'm happy it cleaned up so well.





Before:

 

Mazel Tov brother!

 

B @ stards!

You give them full opportunity to avoid a f*ck-up and they go out of their way to achieve it!

I'm glad it cleaned-up.

 

Contrary to tw beliefs, the white paint is very much durable.

 

Great job!
Looks super.
I love hearing stories about someone making something look as good as new with "whatever is lying around".

 

I'm so broke I can't pay attention...

Wasn't like a major bang-crash-n-burn scenario but I'm glad it turned out ok...
I'm a cheap SOB so there ya go.

 

It may be durable... the isdue appears to be thay it won't stay on the truck!

 

Not here. Still attached

 

I swear by Meguiars Ultimate compound to remove marks like that. And usually just hand rubbing does the trick

 

That area looks nice and WHITE next to your yellow truck. You will have to do the rest of the truck now.

 

Har har. Yea it's filthy. Weather has been 100+ for quite a while I got zero shade for a wash.
Wife goes outta town next week so I can at least get into the driveway and do a midnight wash-wax.
Temps should be in the mid 90's but no direct sun.

 

It's supposed to be 110+ this week.

Nice work on removing the scuff though.

 

Right, but around midnight it should be a brisk and chilly 90 something.
