Scratched carbon door card

KPNUTZ · 13-03-2013, 02:19 PM

I have just noticed a scratch on my drivers door card to say im gutted is an understatement, it's not a bad one but its there! Whats the best way to remove this?

Might be worth getting in contact with a car detailer in your area who has experience with a machine polisher, I would think that if the scratch isn't too deep that this could be polished out by a professional.

Yes it can be sanded down with wet and dry 2000 then polished up as long as you know what you are doing or leave it to a pro as its around 4k a panel

If the scratch isn't too deep it will polish out with a machine

Nice one fellas, was quite a sickening feeling to see it, god knows how I've done it. Ill ask bluebell to take a look when it goes in next week.

How deep/large is it? I've polished scratches out of glass with brasso before...
