<HTML>I had a coat hanger that scraped the glove compartment about 8 inches and I tried armorall no help-anything to be done? It is not a pricey car (mitsubishi mirage) so it looks like a plastic material for sure not leather. That is the only scratch on the interior of this 4 yr old car-any suggestions appreciated! Thanks!</HTML>

<HTML>Take your vehicle to a professional detailer who does leather and vinyl repair or to your mitsubishu dealer.

The glove box can be repaired by camoflauging the scratch and recoloring the area with the same color.

You will not know there was even a scratch to the area</HTML>

<HTML>Instead of paying for a repair, just get a new glove box. Should cost less than an hourly rate repair.</HTML>

Take care,

<HTML>My rate to repair that onsite is 45 dollars. I use water based dyes, but you could probally match that with a SEM brand spray coating. Clean it with denatured alcohol, spray a adhesive promoter like bulldog, allow it to dry, spray dye on. Use light coats, and a hair dryer to speed up drying time.</HTML>
