How to Repair a Scratched Car Cover?
2 Answers
Use a mixture to scrub, or you can use nail polish that matches the car's color or is transparent for repair. If you find that the metal surface of the car body is exposed, you will need to use a rust remover. First, treat it with the rust remover, and then proceed with the touch-up painting. Send it to a 4S shop for professional repair.
Last time I accidentally scraped the corner while reversing, leaving a long scratch on the car wrap. I first cleaned the dirt around the scratch with a wet cloth, then bought a specialized car wrap repair fluid online. Following the instructions, I applied it and slowly smoothed it out with the included plastic scraper. After letting it dry for half a day, there was still a slight mark when viewed up close, but it looked much better than before. Later, I asked a friend at a repair shop, and he said DIY repairs are fine for small scratches, but any damage larger than a palm requires professional repair. Their shop uses a heat gun to precisely soften the edges of the wrap, then cuts and patches it with the same model film, leaving no visible color difference. Now, I only handle minor scratches myself, but for anything more serious, I take it to the shop for peace of mind—after all, proper car wrap care directly affects the protection of the car's paint.
