I have two areas of scratches on my car and was wondering whether these are too significant for me to take on by buying a colour match paint or t-cut.

If it is the case that it’s past DIY, any ideas on what getting a scratch repairer out to fix this might cost?

Rub the paint over the affected area with a nitrile glove, let it go off then polish it with the Dril/pad/Farecla. I've used this on my car for road rash on the lower skirts and it was not only simple to do but completely masked the damage off.

Give it a go, it's ridiculously easy !

I’ll take a look at that, with these being scratches rather than chips and me not being great at DIY I am a little nervous of trying it, but worth a go.
