Hi,
I reversed into my weights bench in the garage doing about 1 mph and have cracked the laquer on the bumper im just looking for a bit of help as to how i can repair this?
do i rub it down gently with a bit of 2000 grit and see if i can polish it back up?

Usually, these don't polish out as the paint cracks too. Whenever I've done these, I've had to go back to plastic and start afresh.

Sorry.

Vette is correct.
Don't mess about with it, you are very unlikely to do anything other than make it worse.
