Common questions

What makes a car scratch deep?

A scratch may be considered deep when it passes through the upper clear coat and colour layers towards primer or the panel beneath.

Should exposed material be ignored?

Exposed material and the surrounding coating should be assessed rather than assuming a cosmetic polish will be suitable.
