Okay, I have a friend that has a brand new Eco-Boost Mustang. I detailed the car about a month ago and he couldn't believe how well it turned out. So I get a call from him yesterday because he needs my help. Someone scratched the driver's side rear quarter panel. From what he says, it was pretty bad. He purchased one of those paint match pens and used that. He said it looked great and matched up good. He also bought a clear coat pen, which he used after letting the paint from the paint pen dry. Well, I guess he used too much of the clear because he said you can feel that it's raised up where he applied the clear. He also said the clear messed up the color of the paint pen. He asked for my help, and I think I have a game plan in place, but want to see what you guys think. My plan is to use the dual action polisher with some Adams paint correcting polish and see if I can level out the clear, or possibly try to remove all of the clear. He said it looked good before putting the clear on, so I think if I can get the clear-coat off, we'll be good. Does this sound like a good plan?
