washing car with a scouring pad...
NO! not me!
girl at work got a new car last month, birds went to town over it a few days in a row, she went to wash it herself, it didn't really come off,
so she used the scouring pad side of the sponge... is she likely to have gone through the laquer? i don't think so. said i'd have a look.
would a quick going over with the finest wet and dry (wet, with soap?) get the worst out then polish with t-cut? would that work do we think?

2000 Wet and Dry, wet, with soap, very lightly, then Farecla, or T Cut.
Tell her to use a brillo pad next time, that'll really knacker it!

wet sanding is ALOT of work, i would suggest using a machine polisher, DA or Rotary with a cut polish and finish with a lighter compound.
