  • BIGGG scratchs on poor DS3

    after cleaning the car today since the wrc last weekend ive noticed numerous scratches across the bonnet , passenger door and deep scratches ( looks like spider webbing of paint) in rear bumper just above number plate. i hadnt noticed these before the rally but citroen had cleaned it the thursday before i went last week and i reckon they went at it with a scourer and pitchfork. its awful im gutted although i have managed to get 80% out with auto glym super resin polish i still no they are there n its bugging me . they wont touch my car agen.

    Matt,

    I think you're most likely right on the cause. The SRP is mostly filling it (it has fillers designed to mask marks, which it does superbly), but they will still be there.

    Weather / time permitting, I'll try to machine it permanently out for you next year (next year because need some semi-decent weather), free, no charge, you'll just need to get it to BOT at the appropriate time, and probably spend the best part of a day at my place.

    Regards,
    Clive.

          Sorry to hear about scratchs I know exactly how you feel. I never allow the Citroen garage to provde the complmentary car wash as the car is never returned to the standard I expect and have to do it again in any case. Secondly the way the car are washed with industrial tools it's bound to cause damage.

              Mylo, you're forgiven for the poor spelling but not forgiven for the structure of that enormous sentence.
              I have no idea what you just said.
