Hi, i just parked my car outside for ten mins, and someone scratched it with a key or something..?

i parked my car outside for ten mins or so, and someone scratched both left and right doors, all over car. is there anything i can do to sort this out. As you can imagine, i am pretty angry. Please dont say i`ll have to respray whole car because i dont think ive got that kind of money. I have heard of T cut, but have never actually done it myself. Any advice would be appreciated.

thank u x

Answers:
you can get a filler wax from auto stores halfords etc, its like a wax crayon will cover and fill in a scratch ,easy to use .
depends how deep it is but your goin to have to paint both sides
it depends on how deep the scratches are but I hate ot say it, you need a new paint job. your insurance should cover it if you have full coverage
T-cut will work as long as it's not gone through to the metal. You have to rub it hard thought to cut the paint back
You need to call the police and file a report so you can take it to your insurance company. Depending on your policy it may be covered.
in that case i would presume you would only have to spray the doors.how ever you may have to pay more for this as id advise you to go to a proffessional as they will be able to sray the doors and keep it the same shade as the rest of your car. it all depends how good you want your car to look afterwards as you could do it your self but it would look out of place.

p.s - check the security cameras and see if you can spot the criminal.

hope that helps

Wash the car in clean warm water, dry off. Use the T cut on the lighter scratches first, don't rub too deeply.

Wipe off and polish clean, check if all is OK, then try the larger deeper scratches.

Be care full though, as T cut removes the top layer of paint.

Always use the same portion on the cloth as this will load some of the scratches with removed paint particles.

Small areas all of the time, let dry to a haze then gently wipe off with a soft cloth.

When the scratches are smoothed in and healed over, give it all a good wax to seal in, and keep it waxed.

Not perfect.

Any real deep scratches can be painted with a very fine brush, most spares places do paint matching strips.

You've got a long job on there.

If you find out who did it, wait until he is the proud owner of his own car then use a screw driver on it. Be sneaky though or you might end up talking nicely to a Policeman.
Try t-cut and touch up paint matched to your car worked wonders on my car
