Hi guys i need some advice. I reversed off my friends drive, and as i did my front bumper scraped on the floor and i have got some scratches on there now

not a happy boy! what are the best ways of getting rid of them (T-cut won't do it i think)

I am in Essex so if anyone knows of anyone that can repair these? buff out? or if i can do it myself?

or if you can offer me your service just drop me a line.

Thanks guys,

Dean

If they are proper scrapes i.e. gouges in the plastic, they will need to be properly sanded/filled/painted. If you've hit the ground I doubt very much they will be polish out-able.

Can you feel them? Usually with a scratch if you can feel it then very best you can hope for is an improvement, but you won't get rid of it. Paint/material has been removed.

theres no chance of polishing it out if you can feel its deep, my missus has just done a similar thing in her new car. it'l have to be a bodyshop job unfortunately, unless your happy with a possible improvement with t-cut?
