Hi,
A few weeks ago I was going on a snowboard trip to the northern parts of Sweden. As I had an early flight i decided to pack the night before.
My snowboard is stowed on a structure in my garage ceiling, normally used to store a car roofbox. Underneath it stands my Boxster, which i uncovered and prepared for the season the weekend before.
I'm really tired after a hectic day at work and i figure that I cannot be arsed to move the car since i first would need to move another car parked outside of the garage and so on, so i put a small stepladder next to the Boxster and lean carefully over it and wiggle the snowboard out of the storage.
During the procedure my brain tells me it all really is a terrible idea and i struggle and focus 120% on being really careful.
I manage to get the board out and put it standing along the garage wall and take a deep sigh of relief and ponder over being stupid and playing with fire.
While still in this thought i grab the stepladder, turn around and slam it directly into the driver side door of my poor, defenseless and innocent Boxster. The result being a 5 inch highly visible scratch in the middle of the door
I guess the whole neighborhood heard me exercise my loud curse words for a minute or two.
So I found myself in a self inflicted nightmare by total and utter stupidity and intelligence reserve blackout.
After this 1½ week passed due to the trip and back to work.
This week I bought Meguiars Ultimate Polish and a polishing pad for my screwdriver and went to work -> The scratch is 100% gone! :dance:
Thank god for miracle products that can save an idiots ass!
TLDR: If you get a scratch that haven't gone too deep, I can recommend Meguiars Ultimate Polish together with a machine driven polishing pad.
