A girl I know has had her car damaged by grinding sparks. She got me to have a look at it to see if it was something that could be polished out. I said it looks like gringing sparks, and she said the old lady next door had her sons putting a new roof on the verandah and they were grinding all day in the driveway next to her car. She spoke to them about it, and they admitted it looks like their mistake.
Now the big question is who's insurance is going to take care of it. Does the old lady make a claim on her house insurance, as it was her sons working on her house, in her property that caused the damage? The girl only has third party insurance.
Maybe they will have to pay for a cut and polish? The sparks have stuck to the white paint everywhere, and the particles are rusting. If it is cut and polished, the metal particles will dislodge, get on the buff pad and turn the buff pad into sandpaper.
I am thinking maybe overspray clay, then a buff, however it is so difficult to find a car detailer that can do this type of work without making more damage. It could take a whole day, so would be costly. She lives in Thornbury.
