What do Car Scratch Repair services include?

Car scratch repair services include inspecting the scratch to determine the severity of the damage, determining what tools and materials to use, the cost of the work and the time needed to complete the task. To get the most out of your car scratch repair, note that car scratches are usually of two types: a light scratch that goes only as far as affecting the clear coat layer, or a deep scratch that reaches the paint or cuts into the bare metal

Repairing Light Scratches

Car scratch repair for light scratches can be quite simple and can be done in at most a couple of hours, depending on the severity of the scratch, and the time needed for the touch-up to dry. If the light scratch is small, using and applying a car scratch repair pen can be all that’s required to fix the problem. While that is an option, the usual manner by which Taskers could perform this service is by cleaning the problem spot, masking off unaffected areas close to the scratch, then applying a polishing compound with a microfiber cloth to polish off the scratch.

Repairing Deep Scratches

Deep scratches call for a more qualified service to fix. This type of scratch may have penetrated the base coat of your car’s paint job, or worse, reached and exposed the bare sheet metal of your car’s body. Don’t delay in having this kind of scratch repaired, as neglecting it can cause corrosion to set in and lead to larger, more expensive repairs to your car. Have a small batch of paint, such as a touch-up bottle of the exact same colour as your car is getting primed for these repairs.

When repairing deep scratches, Taskers will first do a thorough cleaning on the problem spot to remove any dirt, grease or oils. High-grit sandpaper will be used to sand off the paint on and around the scratch, but only until reaching the clear coat. If the scratch goes deeper, more sanding is done. After the sanding is completed, the area is rinsed with water and wiped dry with a non-abrasive microfibre cloth.

To prepare the area for repainting, your Tasker may mask off the unaffected areas close to the scratch. A thin layer of primer will be applied and left to dry. The scratch will likely be touched up by dabbing (not brushing) new paint on it with a toothpick or matchstick, then finally left to dry.

Scratch repair on car (hind left door no dents)

$280

Middle Park VIC 3206, Australia

11th Sep 2026

Few scratches on left door of kia picanto, (red) best offer with good established repairer accepted, will not accept low quality repair. Some can be distinctly felt (very mild) when running a finger across them; the depth has not been measured (scratched against bricks when parking). No major dent is apparent, but please assess whether there is minor panel indentation (doubt so). Please quote for a durable, colour-matched repair (professional) and explain whether your offer includes repainting or only polishing/touch-up, and whether any marks will remain visible after repair. Expect professional repair (not just touch up or something that will be noticeable after repair)

Small wall repair – two dents and scratch

$120

Armadale VIC 3143, Australia

9th Sep 2026

Looking for someone to repair two small areas of damage on an interior wal in a bedrrom. One is a small dent (1cm) with a thin scratch mark beneath it(6cm). The other is located on the left of the wall, with small dent (1cm) Photos attached. I'm not sure exactly what's needed (filler vs. plaster, sanding, priming, etc.) so I'd like the tasker to assess the photos/damage and let me know: - What repair method they'd use - Whether they can colour-match the paint (I don't have the paint colour) - Floor protection offered the in work area - Estimated time for the job Location: Armadale, VIC When: Flexible (from 10-14th September)

Thank you Darren, very happy with the result of the repair. Darren was super responsive, worked efficiently, and provided honesty and clarity over the approach to the work. A clean and professional wall repair, would definitely book again.

Car paint correction – decal ghosting + minor scratch repairs

$300

Armadale VIC 3143, Australia

3rd Sep 2026

I’m preparing my black ute for sale and looking for someone experienced in automotive paint correction / minor paint repairs. The vehicle previously had business decals/signwriting on the doors. The decals have now been removed, but the lettering is still visible in the paint (“ghosting”), presumably due to the surrounding paint fading/weathering. I’d like the doors machine cut/polished/paint corrected to blend the decal outlines as much as possible. There are also a couple of small scratches/marks around a panel on the vehicle that I’d like buffed out where possible, or professionally touched up/painted and colour matched where they’re too deep to polish out. The aim is to get the vehicle presenting really well for sale — I’m not looking for a full respray. Please only offer if you have experience with automotive paint correction and/or SMART paint repairs. Please let me know: * Whether you think the decal ghosting can be corrected * Whether you can repair/paint the deeper scratches I have attached photos of where the decals were located (both sides, rear, back window)

Great job , very professional !

Reattaching sliding door wardrobe and patching a scratch on a dry wall

$250

Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia

25th Aug 2026

Details: The top metal track for our sliding mirrored wardrobe pulled out of the plasterboard ceiling. The original screw holes in the ceiling are stripped, so the track needs to be securely re-anchored (likely with toggle bolts or by drilling new holes). There is a small surface scratch on the wall that needs a quick dab of filler. Note: The track and the heavy glass doors are completely undamaged. We just need the track safely secured to the ceiling again so we can put the doors back on.

Paint / scratch repair

$650

Melbourne VIC 3068, Australia

25th Aug 2026

Looking for someone experienced in automotive paint/body repairs to repair scratches along the side of my car. The car scraped against a post, causing scratches/scuffing across the door and lower panel. I’ve already washed the area and used Turtle Wax Scratch Repair to remove most of the surface paint transfer, so the photos show the remaining damage. Also some very faint lines above a wheel arch. Some scratches are fairly deep and appear to have gone through the paint/into the primer in places. Looking for someone who can assess and repair it properly — ideally a mobile scratch/SMART repair if suitable. Located in Fitzroy North. Please include in your offer: What repair you recommend Whether you can colour-match and repaint/touch up the damaged areas Whether you’re mobile or I need to bring the car to you Approximate time required Photos attached showing the current condition.
