Repco etc. have touch up paint that suits your car, but the problem is the colour would have faded. A crash repairer could match it very well... But it woud cost more I guess.

I'll be getting all 4 doors resprayed as I cant get the sikaflex off the doors.. So i'll just sand it/buff it off in a few weeks and have the doors resprayed...

another good way of doin it is wif your fingernails and wax and grease remover.

yes it may take ages to do but it does the trick.

and no repainting needed!!

Thats why I never take my friends advice when it comes to cars. At least that way if it's a stuff up it's my own fault.

I guess with all these threads from the past. I'd rather a thread dig then a new thread. I guess it shows people are searching.

When the info is helpful, yes.


If you read the first posts, its about taking the paint off when pulling the side strips off. i personally can't get my nails under there to save the paint, and neither could anyone else ;)
