Default Zaino claybar question

Anybody know is the claybar will remove (other) paint from the body? A co-worker has an Accord SE and lightly brushed the side of her garage (the trim part) with the front bumper. Her car is green and the garage left some white paint on her bumper.......don't know if it's removable or not. I don't yet know if it is paint or the bumper is scratched.......

it will not remove it. claybar only gets rid of fall out from the paint. the rough spots. you might want to get a good abrasive wax to see if it works.

at least try it.

I have had some success, not complete anyways, with removing things that shouldnt be there with a claybar.

bayarea is right though, if you dont have one, dont get one just for that, but get yourself some liquid abrasive cleaning agent . . . Meguiars has some cleaning agent type polishes/waxes available.

your gonna think this is crazy, probably everyone will but when i get scuff marks on my car i use brake fluid onto a paper towel and rub it on it may take a few tries but it should come off but as soon as it does, dry it completely and put some wax/zaino over it to protect it
