Car scratches
-
Recently scratched a bit of my car while driving. Tried polishing to make it less visible but didn't work.
Anybody's got any advice on how to handle the problem or any recommendations on a good workshop? I damn heartache as it is a relatively new car.. -

i can understand the "pain" u felt, as it is a new car...

if the scratch is small, why not try getting those automotive touching up paint from DIY shops. I saw these in Selfix, Vin-mart .....perhaps you can even find these in Autobacc?

wah. touch up oso $100?!?Originally posted by Danisdead101times:u can go to workshop and ask them to do some touch up lor...i think less than $100 u can get the things done... -
One panel is roughly $100 to respray (if no dents)
One panel meaning one section of the car
price also dependent on paint
U can try some of the workshops opp the Vicom test centre near thompson. Last time I remeber they did a pretty good job on a fren's car which had a really bad scratch, but it cost roughly $200
But maybe u should leave it should it does not rust, in case u kanna scratch same spot (hope not
) at least next time respray the panel will cost the same. This is usually recc for inexperienced drivers. (dun get me wrong not saying u are 
) -
my car only 1 mth old only and it kanna 2 scratches liao.
1 i think is kanna by some bushes due to my careless driving, too near to them. lucky very small and not very visible.
the other 1 is obviously kanna by some idiot.

I will have the solution for you.
Me car also kenna, perhaps stone chips on the highway. A 2004 Mit Lancer sports, pains me so much, also a mth old onli,
Bring a film cast holder (the one holding new films when u pass film to shops for developing.
Bring that to your car service centre (e.g., Mit- C&C), ask for some touch up paint for your car from them. They will give u free. fill into the film holder, which they will do for u. The film holder keeps the paint good.
go home take cotton bud or brush (colourpaint brush- schooling type, small scratch use ultra light and fine pt, big ones get bushy kinds). Slowly fill the holes up, dab not paint!!!
Hope it helps!
