The joys of on street parking. For my troubles I have had my metallic paint car doors and passenger doors lightly "keyed".
I can feel the depth of the cut with my fingernail but it is not totally through to the undercoat or primer.
Polishing pretty much eliminates the "keying" but can anyone recommend a company preferably on the south side of Dublin that they had personal experience with that could fix it without hopefully having the entire door panels resprayed?
By the way the muppet that keyed the car was a 10 year old local tearaway that took a dislike to any relatively new car in the neighbourhood over the summer and no I don't live in a rough inner city area.

A few on this site have used ChipsAway - and appear to be very satisfied. I think they do all sorts of cosmetic/bodywork.
Just as a matter of interest - you say you know who did this? As I assume they (or parents) are paying I wouldn't be too concerned with keeping costs down - Doesn't sound necessary but if it does take a respray, so be it.
Thanks for the replies
About the child, no the parents do not either know how to keep the child in check at all, or how to say "no". Being in the charge of a "nanny" during the day has not helped him. The parents will not take responsibility either for the damage on several cars.
Rather than ostracising him. we have helped out by getting him involved in the local soccer team and other activities etc and that has helped his behaviour a lot.
Don't get me started on irresponsible parents.
Thanks again
Well fair play to you for your patience and understanding.
Can't say I would have been as charitible - if they didn't cough up I would have simply phoned the gardaí.
Chipsaway were not much use.
remember they're a franchise so one branch may be much better (trained or experienced) than another.
