I need some help trying to repair these, any suggestions on products to use or do I need to repaint them? Customer wanted me to try and fix them.

That's not a detail job, that's an auto body repair job. Gotta know when and/or where to draw the line; big difference between cleaning and repairing, and that stuff needs to be repaired. Replaced, actually. You would be hard pressed to ever have it look decent (and have it last) by trying to paint that.



Those panels can be easily and cheaply replaced with used salvage panels.
 
I agree that this goes beyond detailing, but SEM makes some wonderful interior dyes that can make that look brand new. The scratches in the glove box door would be tough, but the rest is a piece of cake.



I wouldn't do it for a customer though, too much time and they'd never pay you what it's worth.

what kind of car is it? my bet is that the whole panel has to be replaced.





Kompressor S145 or something like that, two seater, pretty fast
