Thanks for joining me on the channel, I hope you enjoy & find it useful. Accidents happen, and this Nissan Juke got a little bit too close to the garage door frame than its owner intended. I’m pleased with the improvement, but think they’ll be a part 2 for this with paint…
I look forward to your comments & please subscribe.

    The products you used I have not heard of! It would help viewers if you could suggest where one can purchase these products! I tuned onto your blog as I have a minor scuff on my wing! Great how you removed most of the damage, yet your blog never lived up to what you stated in repairing scuffs without the use of paint!

    I did something similar in my 2003 CRV. Trying to pull into a parking space and not hit a £120k Range Rover, sadly I just touched the brick wall and it looks the same as your damage. I have a colour match touch up paint for the bad areas but may need lower grade wet/dry sanding paper as I only have 1200 and 2000 grit. When I wash my car I use Aito Glym plastic and bumper gel which should work just as good after sanding the black plastic

    Does it go back to old form later on or it lasts and looks black for long time? Does it last at least for a year? I have small scratch on my cars plastic trim and I want to get rid of it by using sanding and heating. Thanks in advance for your answer.

    ​@@DilavarHuseynzade hi, i know its almost a year, but in the future never do what the boomer above told. Heating the plastic trims coocks the oils on it, and it will look gorgeous for a while but the damage is now done. It will fade, it will be MUCH WORSE and the plastic gets really soft (easy to brake). Use products (liquids) to bring back the shine or paint it, but never detroy it by melting it.

    As a DIY approach you managed to get a very good result, the majority of pro detailers can charge you easily 300 quid for it and for the same result or slightly better. Now you working on a Nissan which typically have softer clearcoat then let's say a Golf or an Audi, which can make the job a fair bit harder. But still very good job!! You didn't cowboy it like most other DIY-ers on the Tube which I like, used the right tools in the right order. 👌👌
