Deep scratches will need to be machined out dude. But it's not as easy as it looks, do a bit of research before you try doing yours, or practice on a scrap panel etc.

Clay gets rid of little tar spots, tree sap etc, all the bits you can't really see but makes your panels feel smooth like glass.

Cheers mate, im gonna watch some videos on line and read up about it before I even try it.
What clay is the best for black cars or dont it really matter ?

I just sent a message to the person to find out what size they are.

Then i can work out how much tyres would be and so on

Clay makes no difference to the look, just the feel. So no any will do. Buy it as a set from Halfords or something so you get the clay with some speed detailer chucked in.

Bend them slightly (tricky but can be done) and stick them on with magnets
