Archived from groups: alt>autos>peugeot (more info?)

I have a long scratch on my car. The scartch is a fine deep line,
possibly made with the tip of a knife. I want to repair the scratch and
have tried T-Cut, but this made no difference.

I think the best way would be for me to apply a little paint with a
small brush. Unfortunaately, the line is much finer that the brushes
that I have seen.

Has anyone found a good way of introducing paint into a very fine
scratch?

Thanks

A

There are a few ways that I could think of. Firstly trim the brush down to
just a very few hairs. Secondly you can get lining pens for use on model
trains and aircraft and the like. You can draw some very fine lines with
those. You could get a feather and either make a fine nibbed pen or use the
downy bits (IANA ornithologist so I don't know what they're called) as a
brush.

Biggest problem is finding some paint which actually matches. I bought some
Peugeot touch up paint for my 307, and it's several shades darker than the
original (that medium metallic blue).

Halfords do paint matching which I have found is better than main dealer a
few times.
They also do a pen rather than a brush. A bit like those tip-ex pens. I have
found this easier to control.
