hand prints
« on: 04 June 2013, 21:51 »
I don't know what it is but my previous car and also the car I've got now has got hand prints on the paint work that I can't seem to get rid of.
They are small hand prints so I'm guessing a child or midget  :undecided:

Can anybody give me some suggestions on how to get rid of these blemishes on my paintwork

Wtf? Serious, hand prints that won't come out? Have you polished it with a machine, DA or orbital, perhaps a good cutting polish will get them out.

Sounds like sun cream to me. It wont come off without machine polishing.

Had these on an audi before, even two bouts of machine polish didnt get rid of them.

Good Luck though!

I believe that in the end it becomes part of the paint so whatever you manage to remove in some cases will come back again.
