I have been subject to some careless motorist having caught one of my mirrors leaving some scrapes along the casing, about 3/4 inch long and 1mm deep....Ouch
 
What is the best way to return the case back to normal, and what are the best products to use to achieve this.
 
Many thanks  Big smile

Hi,
If they are 1mm deep then the only sensible way is to rub them down to remove all marks, filler might work on the deepest marks, then you can re-spray yourself or take the casings to a body shop and ask then to do the lot (probably quite expensive!).

Darren.

Think about what you can do for the club, not what it can do for you...
