Detailer needed, NoVa - interior scratches

[Tairese]

Hey. I just joined, I`m looking for a detailer in the Fairfax(22030) area that can deal with interior scratches and exterior paint chipping. I was reading through what people offer and it seems like most people simply offer interior vacuum and shampooing. I was wondering if anyone out there can fix scratches to the console.

What are the scratches on exactly?

[Tairese]

I don`t know what the material is called, it`s like the hardened plastic that kinda goes around your console/dash/ac/radio controls region. I can produce a picture for clarification. Would that help?

a picture would be great!

Usually those types of materials can not be corrected with polishing. Polishing can help with scatches on clear coated wood grain surfaces and smooth glossy plastic trim. Most likely, you will have to just live with them. It is possible though, that the dealership or another repair shop can order the scratched trim piece and replace it for you.

Oh. Bummer. Well, here`s the pics.

Well i guess if u dress the trim u might hide the scraches a little..

As he said, dressing may help a little.

There isn`t a whole lot you can do for scratches on textured plastic.
