Vauxhall Astra - How to get rid of car scratches - lukutis222

Hello. I have recently purchased a car and I would like to make it look more pretty be getting rid of some of the nasty looking scratches. Have anyone here tried removing scratches before and could give me some tips?

What do you think about the colour matching touch up pens? Do they work?

Best to let a professional deal with those tbh, that first picture shows cracks as well as paint damage.

paint pens are ok (ish) but really only suitable for tiny stone chips.

You start on that kind of thing and you'll end up on a detailing forum.
