How to Use Sandpaper to Remove Car Scratches

Step 1: Identify the Depth of the Scratch

Run a fingernail over the scratches to see if they are surface or deep. If your fingernails does not catch on the scratches, then they are on the surface, and using sandpaper might be a good option. If your fingernail does catch on them, then they are deeper and you will need to use a professional scratch removal product.

Step 2: Clean the Area

Before you apply sandpaper to the scratches, make sure that the area is very clean. Rubbing dirt and debris into the scratched area will make the scratches worse. You can take your car to a car wash or wash it yourself.

Step 3: Wet Sanding

Soak the sandpaper in a bucket of water for a few minutes. Apply the damp sandpaper onto the car’s surface in a circular motion. Rinse off the paper in between strokes and repeat until all scratches are removed. Once finished, wipe down with a damp sponge or soft cloth for best results.

Step 4: Deep Scratches

For deeper scratches, try using sandpaper. First, sand the scratched area with 2000-grit sandpaper until the surface of your car feels rough. Then, rinse off the area and wipe it dry with a cloth. Next, spray the area you sanded with auto-body primer, and let it dry for 20 to 30 minutes.

Always start with a coarser grit and work your way up to a finer grit for the smoothest finish. It's also important to consider the type of paint you'll be using, as this can influence your choice of sandpaper grit. Always ensure you have a range of sandpaper grits on hand to suit the different stages of the project.

Choosing the Right Sandpaper

When it comes to car sanding, choosing the right sandpaper is crucial. Our Waterproof Sandpapers 230x280mm are perfect for wet sanding, a technique often used in car paint repair to achieve a flawless finish. We also offer sandpaper rolls in various grit sizes, allowing you to choose the right sandpaper for your specific project.

Choosing the Right Sandpaper Grit for Car Refinishing

• 40 to 80 Grit: This very coarse sandpaper is recommended for rough sanding prior to body work and shaping body filler.
• 120 to 180 Grit: Use this grit range for flattening out scratches, feathering edges of body filler, spot putty sanding, and light rust removal.
• 320 to 400 Grit: This finer grit range can be used for pre-primer sanding, rough primer sanding, fine sanding spot putty, and final body filler sanding.
• 600 to 800 Grit: Perfect for sanding surface imperfections in the primer, prior to paint application. Start at the low grit end and work your way up to 800 grit.
• 1000 to 1200 Grit: When you need to remove base coat imperfections, this grit range will do the job. Be sure to use the wet sanding technique for best results.
• 1500 to 2000 Grit: Use this grit range to smooth out surface imperfections and scratches before and after applying the clear coat. This will also require the wet sanding technique to prevent clogging the sandpaper.

The lower the grit number, the coarser the sandpaper. Coarser grits are used for removing more material, while finer grits are used for finishing and smoothing surfaces. Always start with a coarser grit and work your way up to a finer grit for the smoothest finish. It's also important to consider the type of paint you'll be using, as this can influence your choice of sandpaper grit.
