Yes, on two accounts :rolleyes:
Will get out the compound later today but I think it might be deeply scored. I do have my aerosol can of shiny black left over after I touched up the 55..............:)

Even if push comes to shove that is not an expensive repair. I had exactly the same thing on my Silver EOS and the local paint repair man charged me £100. Still money out of your pocket because of somebody else's error of judgement though :mad:

Well, gave it some G3 and made it look a little better, but still devalued the SLK by a few pennies :(
Still will require my painter Man to sort out when we have some spare readies :rolleyes:

The SLK is fitted with parking sensors, so why did they still hit it?? :D

Best weedkiller I have used is Westland Resolva 24h, kills everything in 24hrs. Beware, it literally kills everything so don't get it on any plants you want to keep.
