I will take a pic of mine tomorrow to show you. I would hand polish to start, you could try smart repair compound.

Be real careful on OE finishes as there won't be much build and it's easy to go thru and touch the base, then you know what that means.

If the base coat has been touched at all with the scratch then I'm afraid no amount of clear will disguise it, it's a panel paint.

Cheers for that David, looking forward to your pics tomorrow or when you can.

Well, fell asleep early on the holiday sofa and all this happened !

David - GT6 looks fantastic.

Like Mark, I'd love to see it in the flesh, maybe the 3 of us could meet up one day. Do you live near Mark?

Just a quickie, if you can afford one of these smart repair polishers they are so good for detail work and very small areas. Not sure if they do electric or battery ones, but they are a real help. Of cours evey tool is worth the money
