Is the Tesla Paint Repair Kit on the Midnight Silver Metallic any good?

[jubovi]

Anyone have experience with the Tesla Paint Repair Kit on the Midnight Silver Metallic color and would it be able to cover this well. This happened last night and I've had the car just over a month. It’s a small scratch but it still bothers me.

I know this sounds sarcastic but, that might buff out pretty well. I'd try that before the touch-up kit.

You don’t sound sarcastic but I’m not super savvy when it comes to car detailing but how would I buff it out.

^ most auto parts stores sell polishing compound. Show the counter person the area and they will recommend the correct grit to use. Rub it in and see what happens. I've never had good results with the touch-up kits, you really have nothing to lose trying to buff it out first. Good luck!

Thank you for the information! I did post this in the main area for more visibility and was recommended to try Meguiar's StratchX 2.

Youtube is your friend. Many, many car buffing vids.

If you're not the DIY type, you could just try a detailing place.

Thanks again everyone for the advice. Meguiar’s Stratch X 2.0 is amazing. Here are the before and after photos.

^ most excellent! It looks like the scuffs only went down to the clear coat.

Like I said "that will buff right out"
