    Need Advice - Motor Cowling

    I have quite a few scratches on the cowling of my Merc. Several are through the decals and some are just on the painted areas. What process, other than repainting, would be best to remove the scratches from the painted areas? Thanks

    Hmm without repainting? Really really big stickers?

    I guess you could try wet sanding but that would only help light surface scratches
