I've Got a Need for Painting

Featured Replies

Slight issue!! Pulling out of her mum's drive way, my better half caught the nearside of the front bumper on a bit of broken wall. Needless to say it dragged right through the paint, there's now a nice white powdery line along the bottom of the bumper.

Question is, anyone know what the easiest (ie cheapest) way of getting this fixed would be? What about those 'chip magician' guys?

The parking sensors have saved the back a couple of times already, same there's none at the front too!

Can get a system that costs about

Coiuld you not just touch it in with a paint stick.?.being careful not to get too much paint on the existing painted surface.

you could try the paint stick as said, then rub it back with a course polish / cutting paste... after building the area up with touch up paint over a week or so...

My missus did the same thing on one of those red and white concrete blocks used to mark the edge of a car parking area.

Got the proper touch up kit from the dealer (cost about a fiver IIRC) and got the wife to fix it (I'm crap with paint!) Use a cocktail stick on the fine scratches and build up the layers.

She did a good job. It is visible if the car is clean and you get down on hands and knees, but other than that, you can't tell. Good enough for the bumper IMHO.
