H5 Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Has any one had anything to do with sprayless scratch repair? Are they any good? Do you mean polish? Or those little sticks of crayon they sell to 'fill' the scratch? Quote
SAFC99 Posted April 22, 2008 Author Posted April 22, 2008 http://www.ssreurope.com/ There is a local place in sunderland that does this, i was just wondering if any one had any experience with these people! Quote
H5 Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 It looks like those coloured pastes that they use to fill and polish up around the area. I have not used this sort of thing before. I'm not sure how permanent it is, or how it will age. At the end of the day if it isn't paint then it won't behave like paint when you try and clay / polish / wax it. Quote
martinmac Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Its looks impressive but I hate it when they use the term "magic". I would hope to include a level of technology slightly higher than this. Quote

I tried the Langka kit, but was unhappy with the colour match of the Halfrauds paint a mate made up for me. If this is a reasonable price, it will hopefully do a better job Quote

On this point, I was told by Chips Away there are at least 2 variants of it on their database, so it will be interesting to see what they come up with. Chips Away colour was much lighter than Halfords, but at certain angles the Halfords stuff was just too dark, whereas Chips was a much better match, albeit slightly lighter than OEM. Quote
Dicky Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Has any one had anything to do with sprayless scratch repair? Are they any good? The video of this product looks very impressive; however I spoke to a mate of mine who has been to Sunderland for a demo in case he could add it to his range of services in his new business. He doesn’t believe it’s as good as the video suggests. He says it seems very good for light scratches but that it can’t handle anything deeper. He said that stone chips and deep scratches are improved but that they can still be seen. This was also the opinion of the guy showing him how the system works. This guy did say that with a lot of effort you could possibly get a good result but never as good as a respray. He also said you had to buy the complete kit and couldn’t just buy the colour for your particular car. PITTY Quote
