I receive a distress call & message
My buddy Ray could not rest, as he found out that there is 3 part of his ride was severely KEY scratched
I always mentioned this - in My clinic or meeting with any enthusiast..... 2nd most damage is birds pool although you cant avoid but you can minimized.......BUT however not KEY SCRATCHs!!!!!
the last time someone did it to our car - i could sleep for 2 weeks, what a night mare of losing my factory baked paint...

PREVENTION is always better than CURE!!!!
Factory paint is still the far best !!!! Don't Repaint Panels to Cover Scratches!! Don't touch the paint! as collectors wants to do a restoration he's going to do it his way and not our attempts to repair!!
many painter tries to achieve a factory original paint job but, as it is baked under around 1,500 degrees to a rock hard finish.
Cars Collectors will pay you far above book value for your car the authenticity of your ride
Have a great weekend
