Members Richard Posted May 3, 2016 Members Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Depends on where it is, how deep, and the colour underneath it. I've used clear nail varnish on crash-damaged cranks and levers before, and T-Cut on the scratched clearcoat of carbon forks. *Tiny amounts* only. You might be better leaving well alone.

The last bit is most probably the best advice!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Try attacking it with a belt sander, using heavy gauge sandpaper. This will definitely remove the scratch. James Esus and KennyS 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
