How to Remove Scratches from Your Car's Bodywork


How to Remove Scratches from Your Car’s Bodywork with the Lux Metal 3 Metal Polish Kit
Introduction
Scratches on your car’s paintwork are a common problem that can spoil its appearance and lower its value. Whether caused by accidental bumps, car washes, or everyday wear, scratches make your car look neglected.
Fortunately, with Lux Metal professional polishing products, you can easily remove scratches and restore your car’s glossy finish.
In this guide, we explain how to remove scratches from your car’s bodywork using the Lux Metal 3 Metal Polish Kit, a professional three-step polishing system designed to deliver outstanding results.
Types of Scratches on Car Paintwork
Before you begin, it’s important to identify the depth and type of the scratch to choose the correct product and method.
Superficial Scratches
These affect only the clear top coat and can usually be removed with a fine polishing compound.
Medium Scratches
These penetrate the paint layer but do not reach the metal. They require a medium abrasive paste, followed by fine polishing to restore shine.
Deep Scratches
These extend down to the primer or bare metal and require a stronger abrasive compound to level the surface before finishing.
The Lux Metal 3 Metal Polish Kit: a Complete Solution for Bodywork Restoration
The Lux Metal 3 Metal Polish Kit is a complete professional-grade solution for removing scratches of all types.
It includes three polishing compounds of different abrasiveness levels, suitable for painted surfaces, chrome, aluminium, stainless steel and alloys.
What’s in the Kit
-
Hard Paste (abrasion 4/5, polish 2/5)
Perfect for removing deep scratches and stubborn oxidation. -
Fine Paste (abrasion 2/5, polish 3/5)
Smooths the surface after initial correction and enhances shine. -
Super Fine Paste (abrasion 1/5, polish 4/5)
Creates a mirror-like finish and restores high gloss to the paint.
How to Use the Lux Metal 3 Metal Polish Kit
1. Clean the Surface
Thoroughly wash the affected area with a mild detergent and water. Dry completely before applying any compound to avoid worsening existing marks.
2. Apply the Hard Paste for Deep Scratches
Apply a small amount of Hard Paste directly to the scratched area.
Use a microfibre cloth or polishing pad, working in circular motions with light, steady pressure.
This step removes deeper marks and levels the paint surface. Wipe away residue with a clean cloth.
3. Polish with the Fine Paste for Light Marks
Next, use the Fine Paste to remove lighter scratches and oxidation.
Work evenly in circular motions to bring back the colour depth and gloss.
4. Finish with the Super Fine Paste for a Mirror Effect
Finally, apply the Super Fine Paste to achieve a flawless mirror finish.
Polish gently until the surface shines, then wipe clean with a soft cloth to reveal a smooth, glossy result.
