Deep Scratch

Postby sliq » Mon Feb 05, 2007 12:50 am

I've got this scratch on my bonnet, and i've got a few quotes from a number of panel beaters who tell me that i need to get the whole thing resprayed, which'll cost about $160 just for a measley scratch!

Does anyone know of any good cover-ups for the scratch? it's not that long, but i'd say its deep.. I saw a turtle wax touch up kit thing.. Not too sure if that'll work or not..
i can't brain today.. i have the dumb..

Try some touch-up paint from the dealer.

AND STAY AWAYFROM THAT TURTLEWAX CRAP!!!!!

I found this guy very good for the whole respray (from previous post that my car had been keyed) well as the touch up and he sells the kits to do it yourself.

Has anyone had any experiences with these guys at touchuppaint.com.au ? I'm thinking of going there to get rid of some scratches and rock chips thats been annoying me for some time now.
Are they any good?

I used a similar service, cant remember the name and they did a nice job. Gave me a nail polish bottle of paint for future use too.
