Repairing scratch in paint...some punk kid keyed my car
Thank goodness is wasnt my Nova that got keyed! Rather it was my wifes brand new SUV...not even 2 months old, and it has been christened with a key scratch across two doors and a fender while parked outside the highschool were she works (no doubt in my mind that some punk kid did it). The majority looks like it can be buffed out, i hope, but theres a section about 6 inches long that definately grooved the paint. Other than having the whole panel repainted, is there any tips on touching up the scratch? Im not looking for a 100% perfect fix, just as long as you cant see it from 5 feet away (it is a lease afterall, If I owned it we'd be at the body shop already!). One buddy suggested thinning the touch up paint and carefully using an artists brush to fill the scratch.
Thanks in advance...
Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
How did you get hooked on cars?
