Title: bechenham/penge/bromley mobile paint repair wanted
Post by: nezquick on March 28, 2012, 09:02:13 am
Looking for anyone recommendable in my area bechenham/penge/bromley to come along tad a wad of my money and sort out a small scratch on the car, its looks more like a grazzed scratch that came out a little with t-cut but has one small chip to the primer. I will take a picture at lunch to clarify the damage and what I mean and hopefully someone can recommend me someone or even tell me how to do it myself if it saves some money - i.e. use a stronger grade polish with my machine polisher...

Thanks

Try Grove Autos In Beckenham, had 2 cars fully resprayed there (Polo and Mini S) and both times pleased with the end result. ask for Paul.

thats a small example of whats happened theres one part that looks like a stone chip and gone down to the black primer, the rest feels like top coat damage - rough to touch, a little hazzy almost like someones sanded it... Any advice would be really appreciated. It hasn't been picked up on by the camera aswell as I was hoping. Can someone recommend a really good hand polish that will help. It looked a lot worse before using the t-cut. Im quite tempted to try sanding it down just take half a day to really work on it use my VW black magic touch up pen with brush and nozzle on the gash you can see and then sand back then clear coat then sand back..
