• Also, any tips for touching up a big scratch? Any kits that are worth buying?

    Also, anything to help restore the black plastic on the exterior as it’s all quite faded. Probably going to give it a proper good clean - are there any products I can use to help protect the paint?

  • If it’s a big scratch, you might be better looking for a local mobile spot repair guy, I had a scuff done on my driveway (on a dark metallic colour) and it was reasonably cheap

    There’s various black trim restorer products, You can also run a heat gun over the surface on some trim panels to revive the blackness

  • it was reasonably cheap

    It's a big scratch that the previous owner has tried to touch up and obviously abandoned halfway through - which annoyingly probably makes getting it right a harder job.

    What was "reasonably cheap"? Hard to gauge in this thread from poster to poster!

    Also fell down the scratch repair rabbit hole on youtube. Lots of 20 min+ videos and varied opinions. And then I'll have to clean and polish the fucker, which seems like a complete ordeal in itself!
