Hello,
i just wondered, every shop i go to seem to really insist on repainting whole panels, even for scratches that look pretty minor, is it because a car touch up still takes 1 parking slot in the paint workshop for the same duration as a panel paint, but for less money so it's not profitable enough for the workshop ?

Boleh beli those custom mixed aerosol spray do it by your self yt banyak guide
Automobile Spray gun sesuai cover larger surface if surface is too small susah nak betul kan itu pasal paint the whole panel much more easy for paint correction and not leaving darker spot or lighter spot etc reason

can show a photo of the scratch(es)?
If you wonder why the shop insists on respraying whole panel, can try spend maybe 10bucks to buy those colour-matched touch up paint from online. Try touching up the affected area, as per seller's instruction.
If you are particular about paint finishing and/or overall outlook, you will most probably regret doing so. For someone who has moved on from having perfect outlook, like me, touch up paint will do.
