What to Do If a New Car's Paint Gets Scratched?

[DeKevin]

Generally, the front bumper and fuel tank cover of a car are made of plastic with relatively thin paint. If scratches occur in these areas, you can use a touch-up pen to handle it yourself. If you opt for spray painting, it requires multiple passes. For metallic or pearl paint, the touch-up might look quite noticeable, and it's advisable to visit a 4S shop for professional spray painting. If the car's paint is red or yellow, the touch-up might be slightly more noticeable, whereas with white paint, it's usually hard to spot. If a new car gets scratched, it typically has comprehensive insurance coverage, so you can file a claim for repairs, although the process might be somewhat cumbersome.
