minsan talaga makikita mo naman sa ichura nung detailer kung bara-bara lang gagawin niyan e... at saka kung napaka blunt nung pagkaka sabi sayo na "di daw maiiwasan" , e alam na yan. wag ka na lang bumalik.

yeah. hayaan ko na lang yun. proproblemahin ko na lang on how to touch up those scratches. balak ko narin talaga bumili ng touch up paint in small cans. DIY ko na lang yun. meron din random stone chips sa ibang panels so isasama ko narin for touch up.

OT: any idea guys if how should i apply the touch up, necessary rin ba magtouch up ng clearcoat on that certain scratch? di ko na hahabulin ang flawless look as long as macocover lang yung scratch.

Nagbayad naman? Kapag hindi, Kuha ka copy ng cctv footage nila, kunin mo plate number ng sasakyan at iclaim mo sa insurance. Sila na bahala dun sa nakagasgas sayo.

Experience the same kaninang umaga...During my early morning regiment of cleaning our vehicles to remove dirt, one of our vehicles parked outside got a scratch at the rear left door (driver's perspective) about more than a ruler long probably done by a person na walang magawa scratched it using a key or any sharp object...i immediately made a nail test and ayun, confirmed na malalim yung scratch...i applied rubbing compound and wax and nabawasan ng onti but yung gitna portion where nangigil yung gumasgas, kitang kita talaga...napapaisip tuloy ako kung ipapatouch-up paint ko or hayaan ko nalang...Nakakasira ng araw...
