Scratches

[westo3]

Having just come back from Italy where an encounter with an erratic Italian driver put a few scratches on the body work. A couple I can take out with an orbital polisher but the rest look a little too deep.Can anybody recommend a good paint shop in the Surrey area preferably near Thames Ditton/Surbiton?

Might be worth trying some of the "scratch to shine" type companies. Probably cheaper than getting it resprayed.

Good luck 😀

I would advise maybe trying to touch-up the scratches rather than paint entire panel. Obviously depends on what we describe as a "scratch" here.

The problem with repainted panels is that they always suck, paint is always very soft, also depending on the colour it could be not exact match. So repainting panels is really a last resort.
