So I joined the Car Key'ed Victims Club

So, the wife and I joined the key'ed victims club this past weekend.

Its on our brand new 06 LegacyWagon that i bought about a month ago.
It's a nice 16inch scratch deep into the black finish down to the metal
on the driver side rear door.

It's my wife's car so she was upset. but i really don't care, to tell you
the truth since i only bought the car as our baby hauler anyway.
I was kinda saddened to see it, but it looks repairable. That's
what happens when your wife parks her new BLACK car at a discount
grocery store where all the f-king losers usually hang out amongst
us... (Meijir).

I'll touch it up this week and should be able to get it to where
it's undetectable. (touch up, clear coat, wet sand, polish). i have
$100 deductible on comprehensive so might use it... probably not.

before: This is the most visible angle.


After... other angles it is pretty much undetectable. :smile: actually even
if you saw it at this angle, if you didn't put a bright light up to it (like a
camera flash ), you won't see it.

Used generic black enamel, clearcoat, 1500grit sanding block,
ScratchX, wax.
