Ignore car scatches?

[Foofam77]

My wife has scratched a car door agst a wall till the extent where the silver colour can be seen. Would that be the base metal of the car door?

 

Would there be any problem if I do not fix it?

 

If I want to fix it, is it just a matter of respraying? Do I need to respray the entire side of the car? How much would it roughly cost and any good recommendations in the Sengkang/ AMK areas?

 

Thank you

How long is the scratch?? If not too long, you can buy a touch up car pen paint.. look for ur colour code.. but will be a bit ugly lor..

If do not fix, will rust in the long run..

If no dent....Go TCM for Free Touch Up.....

I've tried using touch up pen

 

DONT USE IT!

I MADE IT WORSE

 

Its meant for the pros

TC free touch up is horrible. Make a mistake during my 1K servicing. I pointed a small scratch to the SA. He said try his best to touch up. After I went home and check, the area around that scratch has a big patch, like color faded. I think he ust have polish very hard on the scratch.

For mine touch up at the Fender .....

i used it for chip paint..so not very obvious coz small area..but for scratches, not sure how..

DO not use touch up pen if you are concern with the look of your car. Touchup the door with a pen will be UGLY. For not so obvious area, touch up pen are perhaps acceptable. I suggest getting a respray.

 

Search the resource folder for a workshop (or u can try one of the recommended Yew Lip in SIn Ming)

 

I personally like the quality of the spray in Yew Lip. Not sure how much will it cost but as a guide, respraying the whole bumper cost around $150

If your wife is still a noob driver, maybe you can accumulate more damage before respraying.

[Hades]

accumulate more damage ... tats a good one .

[Uplinkhack]

actually i do agree with the part about spraying after getting more scratches, especially if your wife still new to driving or quite reckless...like that can spray all at once...

 

but the next problem would be preventing rust so soon..
