Bumper Scruff

Some scrote backed into the car then disappeared outside Focus in town. I have tried a bit of t-cut but what else is worth a go before I go to one of these scruff repair centres who want £50/£70 plus vat

It's always tough to tell, but that looks as though you're in with a fair chance of that cutting out. Either speak to a decent local detailer, or cut it back with wet, fine papers (say 2000 grit) and polish up with a rotary and appropriate compounds.

On a side note, although there are some regional variations, I'd be nervous about a repair facility quoting the sort of price you're expecting. Skilled refinishers and decent, durable refinish materials don't come cheap. All the reputable repairers I am aware of would be likely to quote 150-200% of the figures you've suggested for a localised respray repair.

Thanks for the advice, I may have a bash myself. It's a company car after all
