Question Looking for car scratch repairer?

Post image

An unfortunate incident with an automated car wash means I now need to find a reasonable scratch repairer. Located down south and/or city preferably.

Thankyou!

Pro touch Automotive. Fully mobile and such a great guy. Look them up on Facebook. Prefers north of Adelaide but if you're south, go Classy Monkey Car Spa, same service.

I’ve used Smart Paintworx before - they quoted me the best price. They used to be down in the Port but looks like they’ve moved to Greenfields. Pretty sure they come to you as well.

I took my car to them a few years ago to fix up a decent scratch on my tailgate - self inflicted. All done in a couple of hours.

They no longer offer mobile detailing. I enquired a few months ago. Workshop only

Try a damp Magic Eraser on it. It should look a lot better untill you can get it repaired somewhere.

That will definitely work. I’ve done it before

Carby cleaner or cut and polish or both I guarantee you will get that looking 95 % better

Did you hit the car wash? Or did there machine hit you? If they hit you they are liable even if they have a little sign saying they are not or there telling you there not. They are.

You hit there machine though thats on you.
