I went into my garage this morning and my step ladders have fallen of the wall and left two scratches down the back panel. I dont Believe IT!!

Does anyone know the best way to repair these i am thinking of having a go myself.

depends how bad they are.. i had some scratches on my bonnet from stones bouncing over..

get some of the right colour in a touch up pen form..  and get some thinners (halfords do the ce.. stuff) .. and get a fine art bursh from a arty shop (mine cost a quid).

i used an upturned pepsi can to mix the paint/thinners down in small quanities.. then paint it into the crack -so it doesnt overflow- (it expands when it dries) and leave it to harden for a week.. then come back and t-cut it -carefully-.. too much it'll come out..   it'll look fine unless you look really really closely..

same thing works fine for normal stone chips, altho i've heard using a cocktail stick instead of a brush can be better for the application

Cheers for that i think i will give it a go.

Chavfords do those touch up pens that have a fine brush as well as nib, a bit like a tipp-ex pen which work reasonably well on scratches

depending how deap they are but they way these stone chip places do it and we have done it on a few scratches is to get some paint, a real fine brush, fill in the scratch, them rub it down with compound (like when using a mop) them do it building up the layers slowly, it takes a while but it works
