TC - ah yes, I'd forgotten the B&Q trolley, sorry!


I'm sure (from other complementary comments in here) that Ruislip will do youproud

But £800 is still a lot of money

From what you've said, the report stated that the paint was 'adequate' - I guess the question is whether or not you are looking to push this further.

Having a respray will (I would have thought) pretty much nix this, but I can also understand that you don't want to be driving round in a scratched car for any longer than you really have to.

At very least, get a lot of pictures - and I would recommend checking wiht your lawyer for they take on what affect it may have on your claim

But yes, you will be amazed at what scratches a detailer can get rid of with 'just' careful but prolonged use of top rate products.

As a guide, when I had my TT done, I paid (from memory) about £250 and the guy took all day on the car - and this inlcuded leaving me about £100 worth of cleaning product.

OK - so that wasn't to get rid of scratches (TT was only a month or so old at the time) - but the difference it made!
