Minor Fixes Inside & Out

[cocothecat]

Ok there are a few things I'm looking to put right today before the weather kicks in over the weekend.

Outside :

There are a few small scratches on the car hidden away here and there, anyone recommend a product to help eliminate them? Does T-Cut really work? Normally if this was on my spitfire id sand it down, fill and spray. These are not these deep just minor paint work marks (not my fault I may add)

Inside :

The trim on the door panel (the wooden bit, cant think of name sorry) is starting to lift away from the door handle, what should I use to put it back in place or any recommendations (photos can be supplied if required) or should I not worry about it?

Thanks in advance

T cut used as when needed is good for removing light scratches, if they are down to the under coat, do not even try as nothing will be gained


The instant cyanoacrylate glues work quite well on loose trim, though impact glues work better in some cases

Cheers again Malcolm one day I hope to offer advice instead of asking for it! As for the trim I have some impact here.

Do you think It would be better if I was to take it all off carefully, clean and prep it then re apply? Or just dab on the loose bit and stick it back?

If the trim can be got off without breaking it (thin knife) then it must be the best way, as it is hard getting the adhesive in.
Tapping the trim with your finger will show up any loose area's, if just a corner the do it on. Impact is fine but does not allow much room to adjust
