6. Repair Instructions for Colored PP Bumper
All PP bumpers are provided with a grained surface, and if the surface is damaged, it cannot normally be
restored to its former condition. Damage limited to shallow scratches that cause only a change in the lus-
tre of the base material or coating, can be almost fully restored. Before repairing a damaged area, explain
this point to the customer and obtain his or her understanding. Repair methods are outlined below, based
on a classification of the extent of damage.

C: DEEP DAMAGE SUCH AS A BREAK OR HOLE THAT REQUIRES FILLING
Much of the peripheral grained surface must be sacrificed for repair, and the degree of restoration may not
be worth the expense. (The surface, however, will become almost flush with adjacent areas.)
