Scratch repair

(1/3) > >>

Danoh:
Two weeks old and there's a scratch!
Dealer applied Gen-3 glasscoat before I collected the car.
The recent scratch is deep enough to catch my finger nail.

Feeling gutted!
Would greatly appreciate suggestions please.

Derkie54:
If you're sorting it yourself have a look at Chipex.
If you want someone to do it for you I've used chips away in the past and the result was great.

Mr Onion:
I agree with both the above. Probably worth trying Chipex first as:-

1) Its cheaper than Chips Away
2) You will have the Chipex Kit to hand when you need to fix stone chips that the bonnet will collect

3) If it doesn't work/you are not happy with the outcome you have Chips Away to fall back on

Danoh:
Thank you Derkie54 & Mr Onion for such fast replies!
Have you tried Chipex before and for darkish metallic paint? Was it fairly straightforward to DIY?
I've just watched a you tube video which recommends waxing & polishing to finish. I presume in my case, I ought to apply GEN-3 Glasscoat ceramic treatment instead of wax?

Mr Onion:
Our Jazz is Caerulean Blue Metallic and (with practice) its next to an invisible repair. (I would say its invisible, but no doubt someone would say that can see the difference, I can't)
