MickJ Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Sorry if in wrong section - you may have seen my post about the brick through my windscreen and then ending up on the bonnet and leaving a few chips and one small scratch, I have just touched it all in with a 'touch up' stick which has obviously left paint proud of the surface, when dry I was going to 'wet & dry' it flush and then repolish it, what is the minumum grade can you recommend that will do the job? TIA Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickJ Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 try this stuff. works a treat http://www.frost.co.uk/item_detail.asp?productID=8221 looks good, but seeing as I have already touched up would a time difference of days make any difference to their recommended 45-90 mins, allowing for delivery etc?

The recommended time they state on the instructions is at least 2hrs but prefer 4hrs. So paint is pretty well set by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickJ Posted July 26, 2007 Author Share Posted July 26, 2007 Well I have been trying this stuff out and can comfirm that it will still do the job 36 hrs later after applying the paint, got to admit I was a little sceptical with the claims but have to say it does 'what it says on the tin' it has taken a few applications of touch up paint to the scratch and the chips but it is getting harder to see them.

M13KYF Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 use the stuff myself, but found it's not so good on the plastic painted parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinGT Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 bit late, but if you're going to flat paint touch ups i tend to use 2400, cos i have it and cos its not too abrasive, plenty of water and once buffed up you cant see the chip.
