I noticed a deep scratch on my passenger door, not sure if it was by a bike handle or a key... I tried scratch-x and it didnt do much.. This is to see every day.

Any suggestions to remove the scratch or product i can use.

 

That looks down to the metal at some parts... no way that's coming out. can maybe try some touchup paint but it will never look right without a respray.

 

+1. There's no buffing that out.

 

yeah man, someone told me about delta sonic scratch remover, but the first part of the scratch like u guys said is through the coating.. Now i have to look for a good place to get it painted in upstate ny

 

U could use touch up paint and buff it so it's even but still will be noticeable at certain angles and lights

 

Go to a quality detailer and have them do the repair or you'll hate yourself

 

I will just have to find one here

 

Ask for recommendations in your regional forum.

 

thanks, i posted it their..

 

lol sorry I had to

 

looks like i might have to get my door painted =( was trying to look for a way around that but were the scratch starts.. the paint is gone through the metal

 

^yup, the only way.

 

Unfortunately, Im going to wait and weigh my options before i get the entire door painted.

 

If it is down to the metal then you don't want to wait too long. Rust is evil.

 

LOL what is there to weigh?

maybe not a full respray of the door but in order to fix that spot, a good painter will need to blend it in.

 

I am worried about the rust.. I didnt want the entire door to be painted because of that scratch...

do you guys recommend anyone specific to do the jobin the NY region?

 

You got no responses in the NY/NJ forum? There are a trillion body shops in NY/NJ - there has to be at least one that is decent.

 

No response yet CEB, its been a little bit more then a week.

 

Can you link to the thread please?

 

Your gonna need a respray. no other options.

 

Your only option is to have the door resprayed. The body shop will have to blend the paint in and anything other than a full respray will be an eyesore. There is no other option here sadly so do as you will.

Ended up going to the stealership to get the scratch removed...
They ended up painting both doors because he had to blend the color in.
Also painted a light scratch that was on the fender. Cost totaled at $1,100.

 

ouch.

 

car looks great!

 

thank you Jus
