yea guys would it be safe to use compound to get out some fine scratches on my 1998 EK3 civic?
its the metallic green
and would it make sense to buff too?
i jus dont want to damage the paint job and the scratches are small

if the scratch remove doesn't work, buffing might be your last resort. and if that doesn't work just flash her over

compounding will still have scratches,because it is to remove heavy oxidization, you need to buff, polish and wax.
