Question

"I have 2005 F150 truck - dark blue. I inadvertantly


Sent to Car Experts April 26, 2006 11:00 p.m.

"I have 2005 F150 truck - dark blue. I inadvertantly scratched side (box) with the point of a sharp key. It is a very narrow scratch, about 1 /3/4 inch long. Yes, it went through the clearcoat and paint, barely perceptible when running my finger nail over it but I can feel it. The standard repair shops want to fix/paint the scratch and then clearcoat the entire box side ($400-500). I understand the reasoning why - clearcoat deteoriation with time, where it is feathered out, etc. On the web, there are some product kts, with paint pens/brushes etc that claim to do a good job if one is very careful and surgical. I think I am handy enough to do that if there is a good product available. Your advice please?
