How do I repair scratches on a aluminium matte black surface? Kazragore Sep 6th, 09, 01:51 AM #1 (permalink)
I think its just the paint that came off... the aluminium itself its quite resilient. So any idea if theres any specific type of paint that i should be using?

matte finish surfaces imo are the most chio depending on the circumstances however it is impossible to repair a scratched surface i reckon sanding with 600 grit and get rust rust oleum flat black (another term for matte is flat)

matt black alu? its probably anodized and it could be near impossible to repair.
