Title: Bad day
Post by: Devilz on 15 August 2009, 21:02

Want to know what to use to remove scratch from my mk4. Some SOB MF B****** put scratch on passanger side from front fender to tail light, including both doors.  :cry:

I was fuming with rage when i saw that. On top of that I got parking ticket as well outside my house (which i'm going to challenge btw)  :shocked:

need advise on what to use to get rid of that scratch.

I would definitely try & cut it first.  If that fails, then try one of those magic 'resin' pens.  I saw it on the tv, the other day - It looked quite good..................................

Hi mate, sorry to hear about that.

I bought some http://www.drcolorchip.com/how-it-works.shtml for my black golf & it worked a treat, although it was only
for stonechips on mine, i don't see why it wouldn't work for the scratch. If you get the right colour match i reckon it'll do
a pretty good job. Bit pricey but worth it.
