Hi All,
My car seems to attract a few decent ones.. I've had them all touched up but was just curious, is rust really a potential problem? It's just i've always been told to get them touched up as soon as possible. Any opinions would be great. Cheers. |

I don't see them a big problem unless they have gone all the way through which one has on my bonnet. So I might see how much that will cost to fix up

shouldnt need to buff.
You get good results from using a good ol hand polish like meguiars Xscratch. Can sometimes be a little sticky and hard to get off but it gives great results. Then coat it with a nice few generous layers of wax. Meguirs tech wax is good
