dizwod Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Hi, Just a question, Got a new Focus and have noticed a very very very slight scratch on the drivers door. Cannot feel the scratch when i touch it its that light. Whats the best way of sorting this? I dont want to be using anything which removes the paint at all. I have metallic paint also so not sure if theres any good recommendations to sort this. Not even had this a week yet :( Pic of scratch attached looks worse in the pic though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEADS Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Try a small buffer on a cordless drill you can pick these up from halfrauds used on mine to sort minor sratches works a treat with the coloured polish or t cut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Agreed a small buff would get rid of that i wet the area with a spray bottle of water when using t cut and buffers just incase you burn the paint easily done did it the first time i used a buffer luckily just a small patch but lesson learned when the old man showed me how i should have done it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizwod Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 I have never buffed anything on a car so a little cautious. I only every T-cut my older car but that was a state. T-cutting wouldnt damage the paint around the area at all would it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Use a microfibre cloth wet it then wring it out so its damp dont push down on it just gently rub let the t cut do the work wipe off and check if the marks away then polish wont damage the paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
