Hey guys,
I was driving through a wind storm.
The wind was about 50 mph, and I was going around 45 miles per hour.
The branches from trees hit my hood. It made some scratches.
Do you think I should let the detailer buff it or Scratch X is enough?
I'll post some pics soon.
Thank You guys,
Yoko

Thanks Fminus,
I did the scratches w/ scratch X, and it works well.
I think I'm gonna install 3m clear bra on top of my hood.
Do you think it's a good idea?
