Is there anything I can buy (cover or small plate etc..) to cover up these unsightly marks ?
The car is wine red, so the dark marks really show up and spoil what is otherwise a wonderful body ( think Nel McAndrew and you get the picture !)
Carbon would look good. Or black, then it wouldn't show as much.
Thanks in advance.

You should try having a white car :runaway: Decent polish takes it off though

Best regards Alan

JapSalon fit extenions pipes to exhausts if you wish. It wont cure the problem but it will make a difference. Other than that Jif is always good (Cif if you bought some recently )

g10 or g3 can be good just dont rub toooo hard, either that or i use autoglym as soon as i get home to take it off.....sorted

Mines got burn marks on it of late.

I REALLY wouldn't recommend G3, and only G10 if its really badly burnt in.

Any decent car polish should work, then a coat of wax should protect the paintwork and make it easier to remove the marks in future.

A plate would be ok, but on mine even the rear lights clearly covered in the 'soot', so it'd have to be a big plate to protect it completely.

Thanks for all your answers.
Leggus, was the plate an off the shelf product or made specially ?

Decent body but a manly face? Yeah, spose that does sum em both up:chuckle:

Yeah, I used the stuff to rub down some touch-ups I had done. Bugger me if it didnt take half the surrounding paint with it. And no, I wasnt rubbing it like a virgin trying to stimulate his first conquest :chuckle: :chuckle:

They use the colour of the burn mark to judge fuel mapping here. :smokin:

 

[Steve]

Petrol to take the "filth" off, then tee cut and then polish (Auto Glym)

I've just done it with Jif/Cif and it worked a treat. Some remaining marks but they're from the heat, not the discharge
Thanks all.
