Some dick has had a go at the back door of my 2013 Jim with what looks like a drill or Dremmell type tool.
Looks like they been trying to drill a hole where the door locking mechanism is and they have gone down to the metal.
Have tried a couple of them "magic pen" type products to hide/repair it but no joy.
It needs sealing before the bad weather and was wondering if anyone here has used the following product
ANY GOOD ??

PITA these cretins, not used this the kit but depending on how deep the scar is anything is better than nothing to keep the rust away ...

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationUsed the halfords kit on chips on a mountain bike frame, not bad but i found the paint was a bit thin so watch out for runs
theres a genuine Suzuki kit on Ebay for less - item no 110940603150

Hi, just a thought, but as your's is new then maybe you'd need Suzuki to OK your fix with respect to paint warranty etc. ? :huh:
personally, I'd stick some rust converter on first
such as Hammerite Kurust
depending where exactly it is, you could always put a sticker on
this one from vits4bits :blink:
ps sorry for your grief with local chavs

I have a dent near the filler door which I got in the first week after buying it new. It happened on dual carriage way and I suspect a bus/wagon going the opposite way had thrown something up off the road. I heard it hit and jumped out of my skin :blush:
There are also plenty of scratches visible from my runs out along country lanes etc and quite a few deep ones on the plastic bumpers. I can live with them little faults.
This one though was malicious and its annoying that some chavvy tw@t thought it would be fine to do it.
Thanks for the ideas and replies folks.
Much appreciated
