London 'chips away' franchise reccommendation?

[edcase]

Selling the car soon and need to deal with a couple of minor scratches - one where some kind fellow decided to key the side, and one on the door mirror.

Chips away are franchises, so I wondered if anyone had any recommendations for particularly good ones in and around Central/south London? Could potentially travel out as far as Surrey/Sussex for a reputable one.

chips away are not very good with scratches - they will only paint panels, and they are very expensive, not far off bodyshop prices.

If the car is a dark or medium colour, get someone to quote for an SSR repair.

Great for scratch repairs.

It works really well on darker colours.

These guys in Putney can do this for you; Ask for Davido or Tony, they do a good job and a very reasonable price.

As with nearly all owner operated franchises they are very variable. Tread carefully.

to be honest, the rear bumper could also do with a lick of paint. Maybe I'm better getting an all in one quote from a body shop? In which case does anybody have a good London based recommendation for an inexpensive body shop? preferably south London

thanks
