Had to wet sand a section of powder coating - what product is best for buffing??

[ozone]

As above, a frame of mine had some superficial marks which rubbed out really easily with a 1200 grit wet and dry.  I'm sure you can buff powder back to a decent shine but I need a recommendation of which products work best.  Preferably something I can buy at a local halfords or similar - nothing mega high-end like what car detailers carry as I doubt I'll use it again.

Should I just PM Meticus to save time   What do you reckon?

ive used tcut in the past after 1200 wet&dry come up super shiny
redid the whole frame after then sold it

They sound like high-end products to me, boss   I know my local car store has T-Cut and similar products in stock so I'll probs just go for one of those

normal off the shelf tcut, dont go too mad on the rubbing, just light circles untill you see the

marks gone, best after this is to shine it back with normal car wax

Thanks for all the replies guys, T-Cut it is then

farecla g3 is not a high end product, its much better than tcut. and available at most motor shops. if you do use tcut, make sure you dont go over the top with it, it cuts back paint quicker than you expect.

Okay.  I thought with N2Cus being in the trade, that it might be pretty mundane to him but it mightn't be available at my local store.  I will keep my eyes peeled for that product.

If I end up with T-Cut I will be careful.  The powder is reasonably thick so I'm sure I should get away with it

[oberonspacefruit]

yep, t cut is fine, but in my opinion g3 is easier, and they sell it at my local shop.


youll be ok with tcut for a small area of poowdercoat, as long as you go steady, and dont go mad.

Cheers for the offer mate, but I nipped out and bought some T-cut this morning and it worked perfectly.   That was a really nice gesture though

It was only a small area of powdered tubing which was dull because I rubbed out some light scratches with some wet and dry.  After using the T-Cut, I polished the whole frame afterwards and you would never know where the scratches were.   I'm not saying the frame had a lot of obvious orange peel but the area I rubbed down is definitely smoother than the rest of the frame but it's not noticeable
