Is Car Scratch Repair Agent Effective?
2 Answers
It depends on the depth of the scratch. If it's a minor scratch, the repair agent works quite well. Here is some relevant information about scratch repair: 1. Minor scratches: Minor scratches on the vehicle can be repaired with a repair agent. The repair agent can prevent the paint from oxidizing and rusting. 2. Moderate scratches: Moderate scratches can be repaired with a touch-up pen. During application, ensure the color matches the body color. Clean the scratched area before applying the touch-up paint, then apply primer. After the primer dries, smooth it with wet sandpaper, and finally apply the touch-up pen for coloring. 3. Severe scratches: If the vehicle's scratches are very severe, completely exposing the primer and damaging the steel panel, it is recommended to go to a professional repair shop for touch-up and repair.
I often deal with car scratches myself, and scratch removers do work well on lighter ones. For example, marks left by tree branches or keys that lightly grazed the surface can be mostly restored by applying the product and polishing it, as long as the base coat isn't damaged. I've had similar issues with my own car, and spending some time applying scratch repair paste showed noticeable results. However, deep scratches are completely beyond its capability, requiring a trip to the repair shop for repainting. When choosing products, pay attention to quality—don't cheap out on inferior goods that might damage the paint. Cost-wise, a bottle costing a few dozen yuan can save you hundreds in repair fees, making it suitable for DIY enthusiasts. Adding this step to regular maintenance is quite practical, and I recommend cleaning the surface thoroughly before applying the product evenly.
