Can Car Scratches Be Repaired Locally?

[AxelFitz]

Minor scratches can indeed be repaired with localized touch-up painting. Here are the relevant details: 1. Electrocoat Layer: After the car body is assembled, robots on the production line immerse the entire body in an electrocoating bath, forming an electrocoat layer on the surface. This layer serves to prevent rust. 2. Primer Layer: This paint layer also functions as rust protection and enhances adhesion to the next paint layer. 3. Base Coat: This is the visible layer that provides the car's color, serving an aesthetic purpose. 4. Clear Coat: The outermost layer, it protects the paint and enhances gloss. Most fine scratches occur on the clear coat and can be removed through polishing.
