It was only a matter of time…. (1 Viewer)

Sadly I had my first wrestle with a post today. It could have been worse but I’ve scuffed the skirt and wall of the MH. Does anyone have any good ideas about how to clean it up and repair the damage myself?

T Cut first

What is the mark "made of"?

It was made of grey plastic.

Most of that should polish out.
Is the trim dented ? It's hard to tell
Edit, I think it is dented, so probably mean a new piece of trim

A good polish would remove the majority of that. I personally wouldn’t use TCut. Not good for plastics. There are better cutting compounds.

 

[Jez1966]

So as it is a thin "layer of plastic" you may be able to remove by simply rubbing with your finger if thick enough or with a plastic scraper/credit card.
Use abrasives (T-Cut) very very gentle if required.

Try a gentle household cleaner first like Pink Stuff or Jif type cleaner. If no success progressively use stronger ones but be gentle.

I second the jif idea got a few marks out like that

 

[Joolsm]

Thanks for the replies. I tried the credit card and it didn’t do anything. We’re en route to the UK at the moment so when we get there I’ll have a go with the Jif. I’m currently thinking if I ignore it, it might go away…I’m avoiding walking past that side of the vehicle!

I recommend trying G3 with a wet cloth for the panels keep it damp and gently rub, as for the strip it could probably be brushed in with matching paint, don't worry it happens to us all

I would try Vistal - it is pretty effective on all kinds of surfaces without any risk of damage (and I don't own shares in the company . . . ) https://www.force4.co.uk/item/Vistal/Multi-Surface-Boat-Cleaner-Kit-500g/CDM
