scratch / swirl remover? any abrasive polish should work. You tried white spirit?

get some acetone, you can get this from anyone that uses glassfibre.(boat builders), halfords.
nail polish remover has acetone in it.

My mum uses acetone, on a daily basis as a beauty techinician and it will remove paint instantly i used it on the polo when taking tints off and i caught the paint and it came off!

tried some polish and cutting compound for a min earlier but did nothing.

might get the clay bar out an try that. then do a mega polishing job, see if that helps.

yeah got some white spirits, problem is it will mess the colour of the paint up.


guess i could get them resprayed lol.

or new wheels lol
