According to what i know there are no Products currently available to get rid of the " DEEP SCRATCHES ".

For minor scratches many solution kind of things are available at Petrol Pump's etc but they hardly work i guess.

I'm currently using Formula1 wax and a rubbing compound bought from a local automobile shop. The rubbing compound works well for minor and thin scratches. But except painting, there is no other way to remove deep scratches i think so.

Which car you have?
For small cars, The local workshops can do this job well.
Otherwise, Try the "Com-Paint" to paint the dented area.

Its a spray can, Which is good for DIY tasks.
Our DIY'er napster uses this as well for his DIYs.
You can check out more information on the official site: www.com-paint.com

For minor scratches use Scratch Out. It's rubbing compound suspension. Won't harm paint like rubbing compound. Also helps remove oxidised paint. Easy to apply. Waxing kinda effect, but they recommned waxing after using it. Use 3M liquid wax to wax as 99% of the Carnauba wax [esp in yellow can] are duplicates. Liquid wax is easier to apply than canned wax.

HI Vicky!

If its a small dent then it should not cost you more than Rs.2000!

But it also depend on few complexeties like position of the dent & size.

If the dent is pillars then they will charge more!

Can you please post pics if possible, so that we will be happy to assist you [cheers]
