Default polishing out scratches

Hi there,

so many people tell me that it would be so easy to polish out the scratches that have been growing over the years on my bike (SVs K1 blue) - but when I ask them for a product recommendation I get no good answer, and I have bought stuff before that did not do anything.

Has anybody got advice how to get my bike shiny and "less scratchy"?

Thanx, Nadine

Hmmm Suzuki are famous for having developed a process whereby they get only the bare minimum of paint on the bike, which means that "normal" cutting agents like T-Cut are a danger to your bike.

Maybe some less abrasive compound would work?

Try emailing or calling www.rebikepaint.co.uk , they seem to know what they are talking about - and can probably sell you a product to do what you want - I got some K6 Red matched paint from them that is/was good.

I think the standard answers are usuaually stickers to cover them

Or treat the bike to a complete re-spray - Red is faster you know?
