How to Paint Over a Scratch

If you see a scratch on your vehicle, you shouldn’t let it linger there. This is because it may get deeper or wider, which could cause rust or other secondary damage to occur. Furthermore, cars or trucks that have scratches on them are not fun to look at.

The good news is that you can generally paint over a scratch on your own in a matter of minutes. First, you will want to choose a color that matches the existing paint job. Once you have the right paint, you should clean the area that needs to be painted.

In some cases, you will need to sand and prime the surface before painting it. Be sure that the portion of the car that you want to paint is dry to help the paint stick better. You can bring the vehicle to Mangino Chevrolet in Amsterdam, NY when it needs service.
