Any good methods to buff out some "desert pinstriping"?

I use scratchX to remove most scratches that just scratch the clear coat. Worked most every time for me.

Most pinstripes are easy to remove, though best with a orbital polisher for best results. There are some good videos on how to do it on YouTube, just search offroad pinstripe removal and watch a few.

If you plan on off-roading often, I would use a chemical polish to "hide" the scratches until you can do a proper cutting buff say once a year. You don't want to abrasion polish your clear too often.

Here is one on a black truck doing it purely by hand using a chemical polish method:

This Rupee Uno Protect one step is very simple I can do this whole truck in an hour easy and we all know how forgiving black is ;)
