    Buffing out scratches

    I have a lot of dings and scratches in the clear coat of a red door. I've looked at videos of correcting single scratches but not sure the best way to do a large area, about a quarter of the door. Any suggestions on the best procedure?

    Compressing shocks

    I did not have the strength to compress my front shocks while underneath the vehicle. I wiped them off with a degreaser, compressed them on a bench, and had the wife tape them with Gorilla tape, and they held! Cant find an easier way.
