ABSTRACT:
A method and system for repairing and restoring chipped and scratched regions of an automotive body, the damage being characterized by recesses in the exterior, involves the use of color-matched paint repair material, and includes the steps of cleaning the recesses, coating the recesses and adjacent area with a lubricating agent that also will retard the ability of the repair material to bond with surfaces of the damaged region. The paint-repair material is deposited on undamaged surfaces adjacent the recesses, and then a blade comprised of a soft resilient plastic material is slidably moved over the damaged region to spread and move the deposited paint over the damaged region causing the paint-material to be deposited in the recesses and to remove most of the excess material from the undamaged surfaces adjacent to the recesses. After a short drying interval, final steps include wiping away excess repair material soft cloth wetted with a suitable solvent.
