You're not serious, right?

Those stripes, I believe, are under the clear coat and can not be removed with an abrasive type pad. I think....

Im not saying i did it. But im saying i have seen someone do it. But that was along time ago. Like 6 or 7 years ago. So mayb i could be confused with the tool that the person actually used. But alls i kno is when i saw it happen, nothin happend to the paint of the car.

I'm not gridning anything. Need to take truck to autobody shop anyway for them to look at the bumper they sprayed amlost a year ago. I will ask them what they think.If it is a big process I will have to live with the stripe. I think Monsta is right on with being under the clear coat.
