    Skoda Octavia - Scratch Removal

    I haven't posted a thread for a while, so here's a little one.

    I was contacted by a main dealer through the Auto Finesse Detailer Network to see if I could help them fix some marks on a customers car.
    The car was a week old, but on closer inspection, there were a few deep scratches dotted around.

    Washed down, taken inside and spot clayed. There was no dealer 'protection' applied.
    After claying the whole car was panel wiped to see what we had to deal with.



    I'll just give you before and afters...

    Bonnet.




    After.



    This ones a bit hard to see the marks.



    Always use a good cloth



    Checking true correction.



    Wiped down.





    'C' pillar.





    At the rear of the roof.



    Fixed.



    The boot lid had the worst of the marks. It took 2 hits to remove the damage.



    After the first set. Part of the deeper mark remained.



    After the second set.





    The whole car could've done with a little more gloss, so Rejuvenate was applied via DA.
    The paintwork was waxed using Spirit.
    Glass cleaned with Crystal.
    Tyres dressed with Meg's Endurance.























    Not the most exciting car posted on here, but thanks for reading

    Thanks Trev
    There certainly is. Especially when a customer can't recognise their car, haha!
