Should I Get a Scratch on My New Car Repainted Immediately?

[DeZoey]

In fact, even for a new car, the severity of paint damage varies, and whether to repaint depends on the situation. If the metal is exposed, it will definitely rust. However, under normal circumstances, the metal is not easily exposed, and what you might see is the primer. Here is some additional information: 1. Minor scratches: If it's just a minor scratch where the paint surface is scraped but the primer is not damaged, you can wait and have it repaired all at once. If you don't want to repaint but have OCD, it's recommended to buy a touch-up pen online and do it yourself. 2. Severe scratches: If the scratch is severe and the metal part is exposed, it needs to be repainted as soon as possible. The process of car painting is very complex, and what you see is only the top layer of paint. If the blackened part is not repainted in time, exposure to wind, sun, and time will cause rust in that area. Later repainting may also result in cracks and fissures.
