Hey guys,

My local Toyota dealership offers their "Gold" cleaning packadge with a paint restoration procedure along with a FULL detail job...

My car's paint is in good condition for the exception of very, very minor pitting. (Like 3 small spots on the hood) A few minor scraches and a little dent..

So here is my question..s..

1) Is paint restoration worth it and what do they do?
2)Whats the best way to get rid of superfical scratches/dents/pitting??
3)As per detailing...Local shop or dealership????

Thanks for the help!

You can do everything yourself with Megiuar's 3 step cleaning waxes, an orbital buffer, and a considerable amount of time. NuFinish should take out the scratches just by rubbing.

Go to any car bodycare shop except for the dealer.
