Fixing bad scratch

[adamc11]

Hi Guys,

Really really peeved. My car is in near pristine condition with a few minor marks and dents, and my friend like a d%$k put his crutches against my car and left a fine 3-4mm scratch that has gone done to bare metal. Now obviously it won't polish out, i don't want to use touch up paint, but it needs to be attended too. I don't want to respray the panel because respray jobs are never the same as original. Is it possible to have someone repair it? I have a guy that pushes out my dents, is there anyone that repairs scratches?

Thanks.

how do you expect to have it repaired if you dont want paint of any sort going on the panel?

the 2 choices you have are touch up paint or respray the area/panel - there are no other options.

I'm asking are there people that specialise in this work and could fill the scratch and paint just over the top of it. I don't want to use touch up paint because i'll do a shit job and it won't look any better than it does already.

nah she is a gonna,
respray the panle and blend the adjacent panels, if the colour isnt matched perfect tell the shop to get stuffed and do it again
