When we bought this house, we were aware that it had two single garage doors, but never thought about it until we tried to pull a van into it!
When you took your driving test, did you remember the cone exams?Do you remember how stressed it was?I get to do that every day.
There is nothing we can do to change the situation since there is a structural support beam in the center of the garage.
I am running late.I put the kids into their seats as quickly as possible.Someone is yelling about wanting a snack.
I heard the side of the van on the garage as I pulled out.Have you ever rubbed a paint transfer on your car?It is not fun.
Paint transfer is the transfer of paint from one object to another.This can happen when another car's door is bumped into yours, or when you hit your car against a pole.
I wouldn't use Mr. Clean Magic Erasers on the paint of a car.The paint of a car is too harsh for magic erases.
I know a lot about paint transfer scuffs.I will share what I learned about removing those paint transfer scuffs with you.
There was a large amount of white paint transfer on the driver's side.There is paint transfer on the passenger side of my car.
I wanted to see if I could use a cheap and easy method first before buying any of the commercial auto buffing compounds.
I was told that toothpaste can work on paint transfers.
Whitening toothpaste is usually recommended for these kinds of jobs because it is slightly more abrasive than regular toothpaste.).
I found two types of toothpaste, regular Crest and Aquafresh, in my basket of toiletry samples that I keep around for guests or traveling.I got to work after grabbing an old rag towel.
I found that the toothpaste worked better than the non-whitening.It can work if you have regular around.It may take a bit longer.
They are still not perfect because there is a dent and a deeper scratch.I am happy with how it looks now.
Most people wouldn't take a close-up picture of my old van, but they will see the minor flaws.
The location and curve of the metal make popping out the dent difficult.
I am very pleased with the results.The old van is looking better.Even though I know how to fix the problem, I will still do it again.

Thank you so much, this was a lifesaver after my fender bender.I didn't think it worked as well as it did.
This saved my life.A wooden fence was damaged when I drove a rental car.I realized after having a heart attack that it was just paint transfer.I just got your advice in a Walmart parking lot.I would like to include the before and after pics.Thank you!!
