Will polish take this out?

I put the "A" emblem on my itr today, and an hour later I sprayed clear over it, small sharp bubbled formed right on the "A" If I polish it, will it take it out? Should I wait 3 days before I start polishing?

Leave it for a week then very lightly sand it with 1500 paper and see what it does.
Polishing wont leave the mark from the bubble. You will probably have a small hole left in the part were i was, so thats why you will have to sand and maybe even touch up with another clear coat if its too bad.

Thanks p-man, I originnaly wanted to scrape it off with an exacto knife, VERY CAREFULLY, but after alot of thinking (it hurts to think, you know), I came to the cunclusion that I was gonna sand it down with 1000 grit, then put the other emblem to cover up the boo-boo

Thanks p-man!

Nothing informational, thought I vent out a bit on "bubble" :o

Bubble is the worst type of paint flaw you could get. It leaves a "hole" (as pman mentioned) around your paintjob that is a pain in the butt to remove.

I posted a thread about my 2 coats of polish, everyone thinks it's gonna shine alot, it doesnt even shine too much, I put light mists, sometimes heavy coats, but mostly light mists.

I don't remember Armenia much bercause I left there when I was 6, but some of my friends who came from Armenia 3 or 4 years ago said it was a fre world, a cop stops you, you slip 3mor 4 dollars in a matchbox and give it to him and he goes away (3 dollars has more value over there than here), The cop gets money for working and you get a fee, right there on the spot

A brand new s500 in America cost about $70,000, in Armenia it cost about $25,000, but the only downfall is that you can't earn too much money over there, I heard the government limits you to how much money you can make, or something like that.

I could tell more, but I might start cryin and book a flight tommarow morning
