I dont have the luxury of having a garage, nor having a winter car..The G is pretty much my daily driver. However the other day we got our fist accumulation of snow and I go out to clean the car just before class, while I was brushing off the snow I noticed that there were some black marks along with scratches where I was brushing, I looked at the brush I was using (same one i used for my g35) and it seemed that the scratches came from that! I almost lost it then, I cant believe how soft this paint is and how easy it is to scratch it up! My only fear now is that I hope these scratches along with the black marks come off when I clay it in the spring. That and any of you people recommend a decent snow brush with soft soft brushes on it? Now Im too paranoid to use this one..or any of them

 

Well why would you brush the paint?
Get the snow and ice off the windows then let the car run for like 20min. It will heat up and the snow will melt off

 

Although mine is in a garage most of the time, when it does accumulate snow, I brush it off but leave a thin layer of snow... that is, I don't actually brush down to the paint but leave, say, a 1/2 inch buffer... no scratches.

But I agree, soft paint... sorry to hear this but I would bet it will buff out.

 

get a sno brum, best snow brush you will ever have and no scratches

 

snow broom? what does it have softer brushes or something?


i cant just clean the windows, i dont want to be that guy on the road with snow/ice flying off his car..

 

you got an IP, take it easy.......if it was an OB, then you got problems

 

ya wifes friend scratched mine with a snow brush "helping" after some snow at her work. I was sooooo pissed.

 

^^ I thought you had a wife, isnt she suppose to take care of that for you and not her friends???

 

lolz "woman get out there and clear the drive way"

 

^^^ I would love to see you say that, the aftermath would be awesome to watch

 

I've tried that but the snow turns to ice which is worse than using a brush on the paint.

 

i don't put anything with bristles on my paint. If it is piled up high I woul djust take the top layers off but not go down to the pain.

At any rate whenever there is even the threat of snow I am breaking out the Pathfinder 4WD

 

not a snow broom, a sno brum. NO scratches

That's what I do ... a thin layer so I don't blind someone behind me when the snow blows off my car. But I try my best to lightly brush off the snow from the roof such that I don't cover the rear window either ...

 

If your water is still on outside, try to melt the snow off from now on.
