I felt really lazy and cos it's winter too cold to wash car so I got it done at a hand car wash place.... Their brushes must've been contaminated with grit and what not cos it's left really fine hair line scratches all over my poor jazz where they've wiped over  .. So is it repairable? They're really hair line scratches and can only be seen in the sun and if you go close up. Will black turtle wax do the job? Would buffering the car up get rid of them considering buffering removes a reaaaaaaally thin layer of paint. |

I guess it's normal to have hair line on the paint~ it's not really a scratches (eventhough I wax most of the time with using the best products, the hair line still exist) but if U think this might annoy U, well... I guess normal wax could remove the hair line ... but it won't last once the wax is gone after a week ~~ |

what about buffering? I got a friend who knows how to buffer a car up? They've left like massive wavey hair line marks all over my car :s. img213.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dscf66676mm.jpg <-- look there, you can see like a wave on the bottom left. |

Sorry to hear that.. that really sh1ts me.. that's why I never send my car to those hand car wash places..
Last resort... Use Meguiars ScratchX (I've used that.. and it does remove thin line scratches..... Cost a lot for very little tho...
I would suggest to go for the car buffering... professionally polish... that will remove a thin layer of the paint and make it all shinny again..
