decided to give my furio a good clean yesterday, 1st time its had a decent clean since ive had it, and it has various marks on it, was wondering what produtcs are the most effective for the following :

1. looks like white paint, owner before must have scraped by something at a guess, gave all my plastic bits a good clean and used turtle wax back to black, so now this white marks reall stands out, want to get rid.

2. some nasty scratches, not too deep, anything that can be done about these?

3. nasty little dint, could i atleast get this looking same colour as rest of bodywork without getting respray? like using spray cans or anything?

If the the 4th one cant be sorted by clay bar it might machine out. Looks like bird shit damage.

I just wetted the panel and a bit on the claybar and ran it across the paint Dont press too hard or it will mark your paint.
