My mum's Nissan Micra (second generation) has received a scratch down the door, probably from a supermarket trolly. She is going on holiday and I said I would give it a proper polish, wax and treat the plastics. I have had a look and its not down to the metal but enough to catch your nail if you run it down the pannel.

It looks to much to hand polish out. She also caught the bumber on the garage door which has taken the paint off down to the plastic bumber underneath. Its an old'ish car with minimal miles, she would like a new car but I can't see that changing a car for a few scratches, that works perfectly is worth it. Anything I can do just to spuce it up.

Im thinking a damm good wash, clay, polish, wax and treat the black plastics and she will think its a new car.

I think I will just give it a good wash and polish, I dont want to spend too might time on it. Its only an old Micra.
