My Scratch Repair Process
Every car scratch repair I carry out follows the same professional, multi-stage process, the same standard used by manufacturer-approved repairers, at your location.
1. Assessment & Protection
The panel is assessed, cleaned and degreased in preparation for painting. Your vehicle is then covered with a protective Low-Density Polyethylene sheet to keep the surrounding bodywork safe throughout the process.
2. Sanding & Preparation
The damaged area is sanded using a direct orbital sander with graded paper, working through the grades depending on the depth of the scratch to achieve a perfectly smooth surface. The area is then masked off, degreased and blown clean ready for priming.
3. Priming
UV primer is applied to the repair area and cured using a UV lamp, then sanded smooth ready for paint application.
4. Colour Matching & Paint
Your car’s exact paint colour is scanned on site using a photospectrometer, which reads the precise pigment of your paintwork and mixes a perfect match to your vehicle’s specification. The colour-matched paint is then applied to the repair area using a professional spray gun.
5. Lacquer & Finishing
Lacquer is applied and dried using an infrared lamp for a proper cure. Once cooled, the lacquer is sanded with fine paper, machine polished with cutting compound and waxed, leaving a finish indistinguishable from the original paintwork.
How Much Does Bumper Crack Repair Cost in Kent?

- Deep paint scratches — from £250 depending on severity
- Key scratches — from £220 depending on length and depth
