Farécla Scratch Remover Paste

Price: £6.99 Rating: 3/5

Light scratches on your car’s paintwork are a real irritation. But there’s no need for a costly respray with Farécla’s Scratch Remover Paste, which allows you to repair the damage yourself.

We were amazed at just how little product was needed to cure a door scratch.

After wiping away the top layer of dirt on the paint, we put a small amount on to a damp cloth. We opted for a hand-buffed finish, but you can also use a drill with Farécla’s application pads. The result was immaculate black paint, with the light scratches completely removed.

Should you buff using a drill, beware that the formula thins the
surrounding paint and uses that to cover the blemish. Mess up this part of the process and you can’t back-track!

Also, the paste doesn’t restore the shine, so you will have to wax or polish your car once it’s dry.

Verdict

Problems? Difficult to control the paste out of the tube, doesn’t tackle key marks.

So why buy? Gets quick results, paint restored, cheaper than respray.
