    Are there any good videos on repairing scratches on a metalflake bass boat paint job?

    Wax wax and more wax.

    If it is just a scratch in the clear coat it can be touched up/filled with clear nail polish to reduce the appearance. It is through to the actual flake and color its pretty tough to repair other than professionally. Chalk it up to being USED and not paraded around on a trailer!

    Nail polish or a sharpie marker works good for minor scratches in glass boats.

    If the scratches aren’t to deep you can sand and buff them out. I use 600, 1500 wet sand then 3m finishing compound on a wool buffer. I just did my whole boat, it looks awsome. Any deep scratches will have to be fixed in a shop.

    Get a color matching gel coat to remove scratches from your boat.
