Default My baby was keyed!

The main part of the scratch was on the rear pass. door.

It took me 1 hr to color sand most of the scratches out and polish it out. Some scratches are deep. So later I will have get it repainted.
After compound and polish


So glad I took autobody class yrs ago And autopia.org was a lot of help.
I don't know were or when some azz hole did that,that boy is lucky I did'nt see it happen!

Man, If I caught someone doing that to my car, he'd be strung up by his you-know-whats...until they fell off!!!

You did a great job of repairing the damage!!

Keying the car is a cowardy act. That comes from jealousy and stupidity. It's also a violation of law for vandalism. If the cost to repair the damage is more than $500, the keyer can go to jail for 6 months no questions asked.

Thanks, this what I did.
I wet sanded as much as I could.I used 1500grit sand paper.
Then 2 passes with menzerna power gloss compound using a porta cable rotary polisher and L.C. yellow foam pad.
Then used l.c. green pad,2 passes with that and menzerna intense polish.
2 more passes with l.c. orange pad.
Then finished with a porta cable 7424 D.A. polisher with sonus blue pad with sonus final polish.

it's too bad you can't beat the shiet out of him, because if he gets internal bleeding and dies, you're fuct.

only thing you can do is tie his hands and feet, hang him upside down on a tree, **** on his face, then call the police the next day

That key job almost resembles a tagger's sig. Maybe you should take some pics of it to the police and see if they have a file on any1 in your area that does that sort of crap for a hobby.

stevechumo: not this side of the border. Any of our judges would say, "Oh you poor kid. Must have had an unfortunate upbringing". Then kiss his *** and send him on his way. Seriously.
