If you actually drive your car, it’s almost inevitable that it’ll pick up the odd scratch from time to time. But that’s fair enough – it’s a shame to keep them wrapped up in cotton wool, right?

Luckily though, if the worst should happen and you scrape that hedge on a country lane (or the old lady in the supermarket carpark), this new kit from AutoGlym should sort you out in about the time it takes you to stop crying and unpucker your backside.

Designed to take out light scratches quickly and easily, it contains everything you need for light bodyshop-level repairs in minutes. A definite garage-shelf essential.
