Default Zaino users help!

OK, been using Zaino for the first year and a half of C5 ownership, and it seems the other day a furry footed creature left a few footprints on my hood. Now it left faint scratch marks, but more than I think the z5 will take out. How to deal with this? Use some cleaner wax to remove? I need suggestions...

Before you try removing the scratches, keep waxing over them with a good gloss type wax. If they're faint enough, they should fill in. Only problem with this is you have to keep it up or they'll come back.

If you have enough layers, it may just be in the wax, so strip it down with a good, thorough Dawn wash to see if they're still there. If not, rewax, and get a car cover!

I've had the same situation and a few coats of F5 will work wonders. Try that first, then if it doesn't work, fo with 3M finesse to polish first, and follow with F5.
