Scratches
Well I had to do a repair to my new mp bluestreak when I shoved his head too far through his bonnet. Anyway, whilst I was removing one of his pins, I scratched one of his side panels.
Can anybody recommend a method of polishing or buffing out the scratches?

I think Kup normally uses baby wipes but I think it takes a bit of effort sitting there rubbing away

What about one of those car-scratch pens... which were being advertised everywhere half a year ago, but now for some reason I haven't seen it being advertised at all. Maybe they were a scam, or were causing more damage to the paintwork over time.
I wonder if clear nail polish would help smooth over scratches?

Cool, I'll try the wipes first, and post how it ends upOriginally Posted by 1orion2many

I've seen those pens at Big W. I have no idea if they work or not.

I'm a painter and find those pens laughable, had to repaint a bonnet of a car because the owner went nuts with one and it looked very undesirable...

I've used touch-up paint from Honda on my car and it didn't fix it well. I tried those paint wax colors and didn't do well
It isn't noticeable from a distance but once you look close, you'll see those scratches.

And yet a friend of mine had a red Lancer years ago with stone chips galore in his bonnet, his sister went to work with her red nail polish and it worked really well. Unless you were looking for them you couldn't see the touch ups at all
