Minor Body Damage - where to for repairs?

EliseR · Post by **EliseR** » Fri Jul 20, 2007 11:45 am

Hello,

I have some extremely minor body damage to my front clam, a one inchish scratch and damaged defendall.

Anywhere inb or around Edi where they couldk repair? I have the touch up paint, it will require a square of defendall to be cut out, and the area sorted.

Terrible thing unemployment

Gary, there is sense in what my state-leeching friend says. You will get more scratches in the front clam, so I'd wait until they were proper noticable until I got something done about it. If its not through the paint, you could try some Meguire's ScratchX or Autoglym Super Resin Polish to buff it out - Polished Bliss will know what to do

I'm still employed by the worlds 2nd largest professional services firm, and at no point have I "state-leached"

Or if it is bad - try Chipsaway - they do all sorts of minor scratch repair, and they'll come to you

Does Shug know about this

If the scratch is in the defendall, it can't be that bad anyway. Leave it.

I took my 120 bar pressure washer to a stubborn but very dead fly.

I had been cleaning the car for a good 40 min, I was just going over all the stubborn bits. This fcuk dead fly would not move for love nor money, it was stuck good and proper. I just let rip with the pressure washer and in an instant, I could see white.

Is that not what you pay your £2k pa for?

Speak to the polished bliss people about how they would recommend you'top up' their treatments yourself - I would wager a 40bar pressure washer wouldn't feature! If you've got stubborn bits, Sanjoy recommends using a claybar.
