My F***ing Dog, decided that my front bar (the newly painted front bar :evil:) was a chew toy.

How should I go around fixing these?

Should I sand the area so the scratches are flat inlin with the paint, lightly prim the area and get some pressure pack made from the paint code, and then clear it?

OR

Should I just take it the panel beaters that fixed the kangaroo hit previously?

I have mucked around with paint on cars before but I am still a novice.

Atm I just lightly sanded it and hand buffed it so the scratches wouldn't flake.

HELP!!

Geoff.

Looks to me like the paint has come away from the bar, you might need to get the whole thing redone if it really bothers you.

yeah iam p****d off about it, the dog is currently free to a good home.

The whole bar needs to be done.

330 was quoted from the panel beaters that repaired the roo hit..

420 from a panel beater that i dealt with while working at the local parts plus

300 from an old school mate that has his own shop

For the sake of 30 dollars after tax I will get the previous panel beaters to repair.
