Random 1k scratches

2 good coats of uc...got a few random deep scratches that must have came from nibs or dirt..appear to be around 1k grit...do I have enough clear on to really go after them ? Rest of panels sanded and buffed great. Thx
 
This is something that is hard to judge without seeing in person. Two coats of Universal is really the absolute minimum, three would be better if your were cutting and buffing. Two coats, then cut and buff you will end up with the minimum or perhaps below the minimum film build required for the clear to last. So sanding more is going to be a risk. Up to you to decide.
 
3D says you can buff out 1000 grit scratches with ACA 510. Would have to go slow so as not to generate too much heat but Universal buffs easy.

Pictures would be nice but overall two coats of UV, no matter how it was sprayed, isn't very much clear.
Why not scuff it with Grey Scotchbrite and shoot another 2 coats?

That's an option...I only found them on the bed so far...cab has been mostly put back together..I want to avoid spraying it..I just did not see these scratches till light hit just right..re spraying bed sides may be best option
 
This is the truck...I could not get scratches to show in pix
