quick thread hijack, if you don't mind, OP. my GF just bought an alfa with a matte titanium finish. looking at the above, I guess the nanolex and chemical guys ranges are highly thought of, so will make sure she gets some bought. on the car there is a very shallow scratch on the bonnet, the sort of depth that could be done by, say, a piece of hard plastic. with convetional paints it would be out in no time with a bit of t-cut, but I'm unsure how to cut/polish/hide it. any tips appreciated. finally, has anybody any experience with (a) ventureshield on a car, and (b) ventureshield over a matte finish (i.e. will it make it shinier)? thanks, Pete
Do not even touch the scratch! Unfortunately matt paint cant be polished or repaired unless specialised or a full panel respray. Dont put polish near it as you will destroy the paintwork. Even cleaning should have minimal contact! Yes its a pain but looks good. Cars can be wrapped and ventureshield has a gloss or matt finish options - will need to contact a wrap place to see what they can do. I use Grayers Graphics in Essex for all my wfap and decals
