Excuse my noobiness, but how do you use T-cut?

It is for repairing car paintwork, you get the right colour and you rub it into the scratches... I havent actually ever used it though Just the first thing I thought of.

Let me expand. Its to remove some badish scratches from a Black Widow.

Try T-Cut if the scratches aren't too deep. Takes a bit of elbow grease to achieve excellent results, but it's usually worth it.

If it's too deep, get it resprayed.

T-cut will require some real muscle - do not be tempted to use any sort of electrical device - i.e dremel with felt wheel as it will end up worse.

The anodised alu, i haven't found a away for this yet, as anything abrasive to remove the scratch will remove the anodising - only thing i could suggest is to get it re-anodised

I think I will just live with the minor scratches. Three coats of polish makes it so shiny you cannot see the scratches!

T cut comes in colours now? I always just used the standard crap but meh.

It works wonders, but you really need to put some effort in. If you do a half arsed job, it will look shockingly bad.
