Hello Everyone, Happy New Year!

On Ebay there are 2 scratch remover pens. One is for approx £3 and the other is approx £13.

The video within the ads, both look similar and seem to do a reasonable job.

Does anyone have any experience of these or am I better purchasing:

1. Scratch remover paste for one of the big brands
2. Buy a proper cutting compound and use with extreme caution
3. Get Chips Away and spend £200 on touching up both corners of the rear bumper

Help

PS. The scratches are more like scuffs really.

Tbh scratch removing pens are just covering them up and tend to look awful

Your better off doing a touch up yourself with toothpicks and build the paint up very lightly over several weeks and eventually use a paintwork razor blade to flatten the surface followed by some wetsanding and machine polishing to blend it in..cost, about £10

Or, get a full bumper respray for £200! Wouldn't dream of paying £200 for a touch up!
