doors - scratches

[Virtual_Unknown]

after some cnut scratched BOTH of my doors last weekend i eventually got round to T-Cutting them this weekend - the result..... ....it did bugger all - any other suggestions how i can get the scratches out or is it a re-spray on both doors?

t cut will only get out small scratches that is on the surface of the paint or laquer. i think that you will have to get it reprayed mate!!

easy people. how deep are the scratches? run your nail over em, if u can only just feel them, wet-flat them down with some P2000 or P1500 wetordry flatting paper. take it down til you can barely see the scratch ( dont flat too much as youll break the clear coat ). then mop it up with some mopping compound. g3 or g6.

If you dunno wtf im talkin about, jus take it to your local garage n ask if your scratches can be flatted n mopped out.
