No matter the type of scratch, we've got you covered!

At The SMART Repair People, we can repair a wide range of scratches caused by key damage, no matter how deep or extensive they may be. Light surface scratches, often referred to as clear coat scratches, only affect the top protective layer of your car’s paintwork and can usually be polished out or blended seamlessly using our professional techniques. 

Deeper scratches that cut into the base coat or primer require a more detailed repair process, including precise colour-matching, filling, and refinishing to restore the damaged area flawlessly. In cases where the key scratch has gone through all the paint layers and exposed the bare metal, urgent attention is needed to prevent rust from forming.
