Along THOSE lines... a parking gate hit my BMW and scratched and dented it. I was mad, sad and everything... With as many times over the years I've posted that- it didn't even ONCE occur to me to try buffing it out until someone legitimately suggested it to me. It was pretty amazing.
That was my 71 2002 BMW engine that burned up! And I will never forget or forgive! PO had installed an electric fan and it failed on a hot summer day in traffic over the bay bridge! ghahhh!!
(this is actually true but not the buff it out thing)
