Not a chance Kap, mechanicals yes no problem, bodywork is for someone else..Kap'nZ4 wrote:3000 grit sand paper, wet, do it till you see the deep marks gone, after you wipe off with water. The water shows you where you need to sand as its like wet paint. After it looks clear with a wipe, dry, polish a couple of times. Dont let the polish dry, wax and seal. Will look like brand new.

Sounds good, I don't mind paying for a perfect job. Thanks for that.ekimj10 wrote:I would factor in a cost of between £100 and £200 for someone to make a perfect job either at home or in a workshop.
The results I've had from a local company coming to the house and doing it on the drive have been remarkable, damage incurred on the garage brickwork and a lot worse than yours.

Can you do "old" paint Lynchy? It has always irritated me that on my 1993 Golf, a 2 inch wheel arch scratch was touched up 22 years ago with a touch up stick that is not perfect.
