Lightweight Aluminium Panels

[peter_m7uk]

Collected my Lightweight kit yesterday and, due to very careful packing, I got

it home with no scratches or bends at all But, as I was totally knackered

when I got back and not thinking straight, I stood the bonnet panel on one end

while I was doing something else. Of course, it then fell over onto an axle stand :gdit: So, I now have a nice scratch/gouge in the middle of the bonnet :angry: Just wondering if anyone has any tips on scratch repair on

aluminium, or at least lessening the visual effect???

sand it with wet and dry geting finer and finer

then metal polish the more you polish ali

the more it shines pratice on a piece of scrap

Peter,

 

Scotchbrite is good for the job, if the scratches aren't too deep.

I said something like "You ******* *******, I don't ******* believe it!"
