    Good am tsikot peeps!

    Just like to seek help on my vehicle.

    I found just small scratches and little dents on it. What will i do on these small problems? It is better to do a re-paint or hilamos? or Should i just apply something on it?

    hope to find answers from you.

    Thanks a lot!

    For small scratches:

    Rubbing compound or wax lang.

    For dents:

    Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) ang sagot diyan.

    kung marami ka naman resources sir, then go ahead.

    yung mga small scratches and little dents na yan, okei lang yan sir,
    para sakin, "battle scars" and tawag dyan,
    as the old saying goes.. "kung ayaw mo magasgasan, wag mo gamitin"
    padetail mo nalang sir para mawala yung mga light scratches,
    yung mga dents andyan na yan, kung maliit lang naman, wala naman problema,
    mas proproblemahin ko pa makina kesa body,
    kahit ipahilamos mo ngayon yan, after some time, magkakaron at magkakaron ulit yan,
    IF I WERE YOU, iipunin ko na muna yan.
    then isahang gawa nalang next summer. -summer kasi maganda magpawashover.

    ^ Yup, dings and dents are inevitable especially if the car is daily driven.

    madami-dami na nga rin dents and scrathes ko. meron pa nga isang mahabang deep scratch covering three panels na. pero ayan na nga lang din katwiran ko. isahan na lang. hintay na lang yung sobrang masakit talaga sa mata na damage. (keeping my fingers x'd wala naman sana. ).

    Papasok na rin rainy season. Di na rin practical magpa-washover/change color.

    Intay nalang sa Summer 2013, para pagpasok ng rainy season next year.. maganda na yung oto.

    there is such a thing like pdr or paintless dent repair where they do the dent corrction without repainting if the paint is still ok...you can visit the Frankline dent Studio at 31 examiner st. in west triangle qc...near west ave...you can see there lines of new cars having their dentless repair. Called studio because they bring back the original design of the car by removing the dents, dimples or whatever.
