Thinking about getting a heap of minor clearcoat scratches seen to (damn big excitable dogs) and wondered if anyone had used them? Seem to get a lot of good feedback...

Touch up guys, lol, what a name (no guys have touched me!)! They should be ok, especially if they have good feedback, or maybe Mitsubishi could recommend a detailer that they regularly use?

I looked at using a similar business to remove a small dent from the front guard of the colt (paintless dent removal), glad I didn't bother considering there was a bit more than a small dent after the crash - lol. I really need to get the Ignis detailed sometime to remove some scratches and some blemishes on the bonnet, thought about doing it myself after seeing Macca's effort of removing the scratches after hitting the roller door, but can't be bothered now.
Interesting to see on you tube guys using a can of CO2 spray to pull small dents out, Julia wouldn't be too happy with that though!

I have called "Dents Away" for dings in my former S2k... it worked... they just use some long piece of metal with a hook + pointy tip. It needs to get behind the panel so they use that pointy part to push it back out.
As for touch ups, there's a number of steps to make it perfect again.
Touch up and let it dry
Then use 2000 or 3000 grit paper sand it smooth in the touched up area
then cut and polish (best using orbital sander/buffer).
and done. brand new.
edit: above works well with the white colts or non metallic. with metallica paint, just gotta make sure u don't sand all the clear coat away.
