    My brand new car got keyed. I just watched both videos on how to fix the scratches. ONE QUESTION. will the fixed area always need waxed. After getting a car wash or just over time, will that certain area look hazy and or not like the rest of the car and need to be waxed or polished all the time?

    Thank you Chris!! I never write comments but I had to give my experience. Someone scratched my car a couple of months ago in a parking structure and didn't leave a note. It was about 2 feet long, had the other car's red paint on my black car as well as a dent. I got quoted from 3 different companies the highest being $1400 for the repair. Fast forward I just thought I would have to live with the scratch on my car but then I saw this video immediately bought the supplies (as well as a dent remover) and was able to remove the remnants of the scratch even the other car's paint which I was super surprised. It looks night and day different. I am so happy with the results and this cost me less than $30. I am so grateful thank you Chris!!

    Chris, you saved my neck on this one! I accidentally scratched the wife's car while moving something in the garage. I was going to fess up, but I knew that she would hold that over me and be pissed at me, even though it was purely accidental. So I bought all the supplies on Amazon right away, yet, it was difficult to pull off, because she's been working from home exclusively for 2 years, so it's she's home 99% of the time, and when she's not home, she's in her car. I was waiting for the moment when she would be away from home, but not in her car, so I could work on it. Finally, about 2 weeks ago, her mom picked her up and they were out for about 2 to 3 hours. The clock was ticking. I was nervous that I was going to screw it up and make it much worse, then I would have been completely screwed. I was trying to finish before she showed up, so I didn't get caught in the act! I followed all the steps, and of course, after the sandpaper steps, it looked awful. Would it come out with the polish? Well, it did, and the wax took care of the rest. I was so pleased at how this worked, as previously, I could feel the scratch with my fingernail, and it didn't come out with polish alone....a few days later, I washed and waxed her entire vehicle, and the car looks great. There is one more fine scratch (not my fault) on the car, and I'm going to work on that next, that one is less severe than the one I caused. You're a life-saver Chris!

    Great story that I can relate to. It's like fighting a battle in two fronts. First, you have to deal with the job at hand and your gut wrenching remorse at scratching the car and whether it not you'll be successful. Second, you have to deal with the wife and wait for that sweet moment when she's away and hoping you have enough time and that you will be successful. Good thing she didn't forget her umbrella and return 5 minutes into your project.

    Just wanted to thank you ChrisFix for repairing rust video. I have a 2007 VW Rabbit that rusted around the wheel wells. It took me about 1 month of rewatching your video fifty times but I was able to fix the rust all around my wheel wells and the rear hatch emblem. It was a lot of work but I learned so much. And my friends said it couldn't be done and that it will look bad in the summer because its bondo and guess what it is totally fine and you can't even tell. THANK YOU.

    Following having received a deep scratch just like the one you created, for yourself, I gave your tips a try. I must admit to getting quite worried when I had the dull area but the shine did indeed reappear after compound and even though I know the scratch was there even I cannot see it anymore. Congratulations on a nice well- explained video.

Nothing was done about it and there was no reason for the vehicle to be searched. The cop's excuse for it was that the dog smelled "hard drugs" and that they are only trained to smell out "hard drugs". All my sister had in the car was her medications for her heart problems and other medical issues. Still pretty sad that nothing was done about it.

Now my ‘23 Corolla hatchback is just as new. Had crazy amount of scratches (11 total) because of a lazy contractor who was painting my neighbor’s house and had overspray on my car and tried to wash off the paint. It got to a point where he overdid it and really did some serious damage to it. All I can say is, thank you. Chris’s video really works people. It just takes time and effort.

    Does the haze return when you wash the car?

    I watched this video, ordered supplies on Amazon, and executed today. Took about 2-3 hours. It took some courage to apply sandpaper to my new Rivan truck but I had faith and ended up with an excellent result! Thank-you Chris Fix! Jon from San Francisco

    STILL see a haze where it was sanded. Needed to be polished a bit more a few more times by hand OR with an dual action orbital polisher. Good explanation about scratches and also the fewer and fewer scratches you get rid of the more of a mirror finish is achieved. LOVE this channel, good job Chris.
