Scratch Removal Kit for Auto, Includes Disc Pad Holder, Abrasive, Pads and Compound (39071)

The 3M Scratch Removal System is designed to eliminate minor scratches, scuffs, and other small defects on automotive clear coats by utilizing a sanding, compounding, and polishing process. This scratch remover for cars comes with all the necessary specialty supplies to complete the job, requiring only a standard household drill and other basic household items from the user.

The simple 5-step process makes it easy to remove scratches, providing users with everything they need, as well as step-by-step guidance, to repair small clear coat scratches on vehicles. The 3-stage system of sanding, compounding, and polishing the clear coat is designed to remove defects, such as fine scratches on the door handle, door panels, or the trunk.

The 3M Scratch Removal System is an easy and inexpensive way to repair clear coat scratches. It comes with everything needed right out of the box, aside from a household drill, allowing users to save money by performing the scratch repair themselves and improving the appearance of their vehicle's paint.

Vehicles are manufactured with exterior finishes that consist of multiple layers, including primer, colored paint, and a thin top layer known as the clear coat. The 3M Scratch Removal System is designed to remove defects to the clear coat with the aid of a user-supplied household drill. It can easily repair fine scratches from sources such as automatic car wash brushes and vegetation scrapes, which are common in areas like the door handle and trunk.

The 3-tiered approach of the 3M Scratch Removal System involves sanding with the included 3000-grit sandpaper to reduce the scratch, applying the 3M rubbing compound and refining the scratch area, and finally polishing and restoring the scratch area using a 3M polishing pad, scratch remover compound, and a common household drill. An additional recommended step is to apply automotive wax in the repaired area to protect the car's finish, as a portion of the clear coat has been removed.

This repair process is commonly performed by professional technicians in automotive collision shops, car dealerships, detail shops, and assembly plants for high dollar amounts. However, the 3M Scratch Removal System allows users to perform this task themselves for a fraction of the cost.

The kit contains a disc pad holder, 3000-grit abrasive square, purple compounding pad, black polishing pad, 3M rubbing compound (1 oz), 3M scratch remover (1 oz), and step-by-step directions for use. While 3M will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from the use of the product, this system is designed to remove light paint scratches and scuffs, restoring the flawless appearance of the car, truck, or van.
