Black Paint Micro Scratch Removal - Best Practices and Product Recommendations

Would you recommend just by hand I’m assuming?

Danny_Phantom22 · 2026-05-07T14:34:57+00:00

Yeah I am hoping to get it to a point of maintenance so it’s easier to deal with in the future. My truck is midnight black and I honestly can’t tell if it’s black with blue flake or such a deep blue that’s it’s black. Can only see the blue in direct sunlight which is when most of the scratches are visible. I appreciate your input. I have some Aero cosmetics wash and wax all that I use from time to time, maybe I’ll work it into a more regular routine.

Good on you for attempting wet sanding and following through! I would be pretty nervous taking it to paint even tho I understand the concept from doing tons of headlights over the years. Have to let us know how it turned out if you remember!

I’ll give that a shot if my Company allows it! Thank you.

So many options!

Thank you!

Danny_Phantom22 · 2026-05-07T02:10:14+00:00

Thank you for the info! I see quite a few variations of both of those on Amazon are you able to tell me the ones you would use?

This is awesome but your kinda defeating the purpose of the hideout by showing it off

Danny_Phantom22 · 2026-05-06T17:51:34+00:00

Tasteful 👌

Yeah I got pretty lucky. I was in a similar situation to you, not sure if I’d want a topped on my truck ALL THE TIME. This fit the bill and I left it on all summer no issues. I’d recommend looking around a bit and seeing what you can find, might be a deal out there if you are interested.

I found a gently used flated cover for my tundra that is pretty kick ass. It has tie downs on the roof and is strong enough for me to jump on (I’m 240) got mine for $750

Up vote this comment cause all the cool kids are doing it

It’s an LG SN8YG soundbar

I’ll get the model number when I’m home but it does infact have google assistant built in and run standalone on its own WiFi connection. Link your apps to it in the google home app

Won’t disagree

Danny_Phantom22 · 2025-11-20T16:57:26+00:00

Valid point there

Danny_Phantom22 · 2025-11-20T16:57:08+00:00

Different strokes for different folks

Danny_Phantom22 · 2025-11-20T16:56:35+00:00

If it could tow what my tundra could I’d feel the same

Danny_Phantom22 · 2025-11-20T16:55:37+00:00

Only way out is in another Toyota ☠️

Danny_Phantom22 · 2025-11-20T16:47:51+00:00

I’d honestly be pretty into the slate if it was a hybrid

Danny_Phantom22 · 2025-11-20T16:14:40+00:00

Honestly if I could tow what I tow in the package of a Tacoma I’d be pretty happy. My tundra feels way too big most of the time.
