In this video, I'm repairing long key scratches and scuffs down both sides of a blue Volvo using a traditional touch-up paint technique.
Using colour-matched automotive paint mixed with clearcoat, I'll show you how I brush paint directly into the damaged areas, allow it to dry, then carefully wet sand and machine polish the repairs to restore the finish.
No spray gun, no full panel repaint — just a straightforward approach to improving damaged car paintwork.
