Do you mean 2000 grit? Isn't 200 grit a bit aggressive?I use 200 wet sand paper for scratches and inconsistences in the paint. You could try - WD-40 Multi Use Product, you can remove paint stains from your car without any complications and damage to the metallic paint on its body. Whether you are dealing with fresh wet paint or old and dry stains,
Yes 2000I use 200 wet sand paper for scratches and inconsistences in the paint.

You also may try mineral spirits. My old top gaskets left a bunch of gum like rubber on the deck. The mineral spirits and elbow grease did the trick. Maybe Goof Off would work also.Paint is 20 years old, high end restoration, colonial white. Have not tried wd40 but will this weekend unless anyone else has any other ideas. Thanks for the quick responses!
I have used GOOf-OFF many times to remove stains and such. It is powerful, so test a spot first.Is it possible to remove stains in my paint from the hardtop. I have tried polishing compounds and even rubbing compound, all by hand so I don't scratch the rear deck with no luck. HELP
Unless you are going into a Concours judging situation just write it off as normal natural wear & tear and be proud of it as you drive it and use it and not a trailer queen. Mine is the same way with little chips from introducing the hard top to the body.I have some marks on my paint from years of it having the top on it. I have tried all sorts of things to get rid of the marks including a variety of polishes and rubbing compounds. Nothing gets rid of it, it's just too deep, by the time I polished/rubbed off enough material to get the blemish out it's likely it would look even worse due to the depth I'd have to go into the paint. You may be in the same boat.
