Paint Touch-up, Scratch Repair.

Anyone ever use these guys http://mobilepaintdentrepair.com/ or similar?

I have a few scuffs and scratches and I'm hoping to avoid the body shop.

Hmmm interesting proposition, mobil minor paint repair for scratches and such. I wonder how they do it w paint, clear, colormatch, and blending. Maybe they use airbrushing with clearcoat on top of that?

Most of the mobile services arent as high quality as going to a body shop... That said, the damage to your mini looks super minor (perhaps the pics don't do it justice?) it looks to me like the scuff on the wheel will buff out, and the bumper area requires a simple touchup. Mini should have a touchup pen/brush that will exactly match that paint color available through their parts department. Will you have the car out at any meets in the near future? I'd be glad to take a quick look and help you decide on an appropriate course of action to repair the defects if we happen to be in the same place at the same time

Thanks, airbrush, they are really minor, honestly, which is why I'm not willing to pay a body shop to paint the entire wheel and bumper.
