Best cleaning chemical for auto carpet and upholstery? I'm cleaning cloth upholstery in a 2011 impala and its coffee and coke stains that keep bleeding through.

Mineral spirits. You can go to any hardware store and get some. It may be called paint thinner. However, get "mineral spirits". After using mineral spirits, soap and water. Soak up as much as possible with rags. Then, if not too much mineral spirits are still present, use a shop vacuum and an gallon of soapy water. Suck it out really well. Then let it dry well. You will be shocked at how clean it comes out.

How do I replace the star on the trunk lid of 2011 MB E350

Use a heat gun or hair dryer to apply heat to the old badge until it feels loose then pull it off with your fingers. I have a plastic pry tool I wrap a rag around so I don't scratch the paint.
The adhesive that's left on the trunk, can be removed with 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner. If you try other glue removers, do it on a test area that doesn't show because most of them are very harsh and will remove the wax and other things you don't want to remove.

2005 Lexus RX330. Brushed the side of door against a pillar resulting in white scratch marks. How do I get rid of these scratches short of taking to body shop.

I'm assuming the pillar is white and therefore transferred the paint onto your car. I've fixed this issue before with my Mothers RX350.

Clean any dirt from the area. Take a mild rubbing compound and rub in the direction of the scratch marks. It's a bit labor intensive, but after a few minutes you should see some improvement. If the scratch marks disappear, follow up with a polish wax to get rid of any mild scratches from the rubbing compound.
If the pillar actually removed paint from your vehicle, the best bet is to take your car into a body shop to get an estimate on repairs.

Someone scratched the right side of my car with a piece of glass how can I get that out without having to get it painted

Hi Suzette, If the paint has been damaged through to the metal, there are no short cuts. If it is the top layer of paint which has been damaged there is a Turtle Wax product that may help you. In the event of needing to 'touch up' paint from your dealer. There should be a color code on one of the tags under the hood (bonnet), which will give a matched color. Regards John

I have dirty headlight covers and want to remove them to see if they can be cleaned. I have a 2001 Impala

Novus products worked for me. There are three strengths. No. 1 is a general
spray cleaner. No. 2 is a fine scratch remover that requires some elbow grease.
I find rinsing it as I work it in helps speed up the process. The yellowing and
small scratches are caused by ozone and sand blowing in the air. This product
won't make it factory new but it will give a much better cleaning than any other
product I've found. I've saved many friend's the expense of changing their
headlights.
Don't use windex or dishsoap on headlight plastic. They have ammonia in them
and causes microsopic pitting and fractures in clear plastic.
I bought my Novus products on line, saved gas running around trying to find it.

Scratch on ultra bright aluminum wheel- I have removed some deep scratches on my wheels and sprayed clear coat on them but can't get the same brightness on the wheel as the original untouched areas..

The factory wheels have a clear anodized finish on them, unfortunately you will never get them to look perfect. Clear coat is a good idea to help protect the scratch from spreading.

I have a passat estate and it is silver the paint is blotchy all over as if finger marks are left cannot get rid told to heat them up and they do go but then come back in a couple of days has anybody else...

hi from uk i am going to pass on to you an old remedy that a body spray painter passed on to me when i had a silver cortina 1600E in my youngr days and it does work ! if you obtain a tin of liquid metal polish ie brasso or carr day and martins metal polish pour a generouse amount onto a soft cloth then do a panel at a time ie front wing ? rub polish in straight lines only over panel apply firm pressure and be careful not to miss anywhere ? doing this removes all old wax polish and enhances the silver shine then wash panel with warm soap water of metal polish then leather or dry off ? you will feel the difference in texture of paint surface this requires lots of patience to do it right over all the cars body work afterwards use only wash wax liquid and rinse each wash not wax polish this remedy works magic on red painted cars that have turned pink matt ? using this method removes all old wax polish which has created pink due to sunlight as you may have noticed on other cars i hope you try this remedy at least on one panel? then look forward to your update/opinion on this ? best wishes from n/west uk

Removeing scrathes from metal

Depends how big the scratches are.

some will buff out buy using a good car wax and polishing the scratches out. As long as the scrathes have not gone through the paint down to the metal it will work. If you get some "Tar gone" its and abrasive for getting tar off paint that can some times be a little abbrasive and can get the scratch rubbed out prior to going over the top of that area again after with a good high quality car polish (one you apply by hand with a cloth and rub to a shine - not one you tip in a bucket of water and wash the car with).

If the scratches a really large like wide than a human hair, or if the metal is dented, then the buffing is not going to work and if you can't live with it you may want to consider respray via a car body shop. you can do it your self with a spray can but cars today have a clear top coat for a start that will mean respraying your self will look bad and thats if you can even get the color matched exactly, so if its bad and buffing wont work go see a body shop for a quote.
