Its the pits when that happens

, Filly one of our F's got keyed across the bonnet right along one side across the boot, and worst of all, as the rear window was split we had the colour coded hard top on, so they went right over that, and they were bloody deep gouges not just scratches, luckily the lazy bassard couldnt be arsed to walk round and do the other side.

I really hope they got a great deal of enjoyment out of it. We were gutted.

Well it says 1oclock club..some kids thing i think..

anyways... the scratch,

after a couple of hours with T-Cut constantly doing little circles over time, ( i really need an electric buffer) It came out...luckily the scratch didnt go all the way through and mainly took off the laquer coating...

once t-cutting over put a little lacquer on and buffed off until smooth...you cant see it at all unless you really really know where it is and you are looking for it

Sorry about the low resolution the only pic i have at the mo is an mms i sent to a friend to show results.

I'll get a bigger pic up tonight

I bloody well hate these little scroats, if i ever caught anybody near my car behaving like that I know for a fact I'd be getting arrested assuming they call the police.

Only downfall to be in security, if i get a police caution for fighting etc then i lose my SIA license and my job even if it was self defence and the scroat presses charges it's all up to the police and CPS then if they prosecute which is ********.

Must admit I keyed a car the other day........but the guy said he was saving the parking space for his wife and baby, AFTER letting me reverse into it, so I went and parked in another car park altogether to get to work, funny thing is I saw him with his wife but no baby, and while working I passed his car and noticed no baby stuff whatsoever in there, sorry but he deserved a little scratch on his Renault scenic for lying about the baby. Taking advantage of my good nature!

I must admit that I have scratched a car before, with my handbag :O I left a note under the windscreen wiper, the car wasn't in very good condition and the owner never contacted me... but still feel bad whenever i see these sort of posts :O

p.s glad to see it's come out :D well done
At the end of the day accidents happen, and at least you done the correct thing by leaving a note with contact details:broon: Its when people that damage your car and then flee with out leaving any contact details that angers me

:) like shiney,

but after that afternoon im definitely investing in an electric polisher/buffer
Got one of those from Mrs Clause the year before last. Its great but haven't had a big job like that one to do....thankfully. Dont get a rotary one because they can easily do more damage than they fix. Get an orbital one so it doesn't spin on a fixed point and burn your paint.
