Rayman Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 do you think this will polish out , ive already removed the scratch from the start of the panel Hi Pete sorry to hear about your misfortunes, i know exactly how you feel, i have been vandalised a few times in the past. When you first see it your blood boils. The normal consensus is if you can feel it with your fingernail its unlikely to polish out completetely although you will be able to improve the appearance of the scratch. Ive been using Meguiars 80 & 83 recently to great affect with a machine polisher:- porter cable. It works fantastic on my BMW paint not sure how well it will work on the toyota paint but i recommend you give it a try. Good luck, If you dont get anywhere with it try giving chipsaway a ring for a quote, i think they will sand it down and repaint etc and heard some good rep about them!

peter richards Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 thats the machine ive ordered , the porter cable , should be here any time , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Brilliant they are great easy to use, try it with the meguiars stuff and i think you shud be able get rid of it, also worthwhile tool to have just in case you get any further small scratches.

Branners Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 You should see the marks I have on my Citroen, if it was the supra I would be livid. I think theres a dent or mark on pretty much every panel now. Parked in St Albans today, came back and there was yet another dent and scratch on the offside wing.

Max Headroom Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 If it was intentional then normally its down to that green eyed monster. People think if they can't have something nice why the feck should you. I'm afraid its human nature - but its also my nature to RIP THEIR F***ING HEAD OFF AND S*** IN THE BLOODY STUMP.

AlanM Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Know how feel Peter, had this done a few years ago, still would like to know who did it. Good luck getting it out mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Just in case none of the other stuff works from meguires. I recommend MER. It seems to work really well with mettalic paint. sorry to see that mate, I would cry if it happened to mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
and1c Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 do you think this will polish out , ive already removed the scratch from the start of the panel Unfortuantely it looks like it may be too deep mate..... I've done a fair few bodywork repairs and a general rule of thunmb I have is if you draw your finger nail across the path of the scratch >>> if it digs into a noticeable "rut" then it is normally beyond scratch repair techniques... You could always try some farecla compound on it with a pro polisher but IMO it may well need the panel spraying professionally Scumbags....hangings too good for em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
