Smiley Neutral Newbie January 6, 2003 Share January 6, 2003 Hv got this 1 cm hair line scratch mark on my car door. Not visible fm far, but felt the heartache when I wash my car . Any effective way to remove them myself without going to the workshop? Seen one of those cream on TV media which can apply to remove minor scratch marks, anyone tried? Effectiev? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saaber Neutral Newbie January 6, 2003 Share January 6, 2003 Just use wax or polish to polish it many times first, usually works.......If not then use harsher compound like scratch remover.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assassin Clutched January 6, 2003 Share January 6, 2003 You can try using Meguairs Scratch-X [available at Carrefour or Home Fix DIY shops] or MIPA Sanding paste to try to fix it. No guarantees however as they are for fine scratches only. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offroader Neutral Newbie January 6, 2003 Share January 6, 2003 Cream?.....sometimes it works, most of the time it doesnt...dont know though about the Meg's. However, tried on my old Rover, does not work........initially, it looks fine, after rain....liao...... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley Neutral Newbie January 6, 2003 Author Share January 6, 2003 wax and polish no use. i m afraid those chemicals, especially the harsher ones wl bite off the paint. then it wl be a patch of blur blur instead of a hair line scratch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Neutral Newbie January 6, 2003 Author Share January 6, 2003 If Meg's is wax or polish, then no point. Tried wax and polish before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offroader Neutral Newbie January 6, 2003 Share January 6, 2003 Actually, u apply the touch up paint, then use a good polish and even out the color with the surrounding......however, my own experience then taught me that the difficult part was the appling the paint.........if not careful, become a blob..

Assassin Clutched January 6, 2003 Share January 6, 2003 the scratch is so tiny that it wl not appear in picture. only when wash car, i see, i touch, i ache..... In that case, you might want to try out the Meguair's Scratch-X remover. Or like what the other bros say, apply your normal polish/wax over it to protect it and live with it lor. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
