Frequently Asked Questions...
Why are car radiators painted matt black?
Answer:
It allows more efficient heat radiation than would for example white. To demonstrate this, feel the temperature of something dark / black that has been left out in the sun for a time. Now feel the temp. of something light coloured that has been in the sun for the same time. The dark object will be much warmer.
Saint's answer refers I think to the grill at the front of the car, not the radiator itself.

Car Paint Scratch Repair
Many people around the world have great affection for their cars. They care a lot and even a single scratch makes them uncomfortable. Anyway, there is no need to worry about such minor problems because the car paint scratch repair is not a hard task in recent days. A minor scratch can be easily repaired but if it is a major one you really need help of one professional car painter. It is obvious that a car will get a scratch or two and there is nothing you can do about it. The only thing you can do is take proper precaution while parking in or away from homes. 2
The most important part in car paint scratch repair is to fix the scratch in early stage. There is no need of any expensive tools to fix it. You can just put in your fingernail over the surface and find out whether it is deep into the paint or just sitting on top of it. The scratch on top can be easily removed with acetone or polish thinner. If still remain you can use polishing compound to remove the scratch. Many times a mark appears because of rub against certain items such as rubber, plastic or other paint. This is not a scratch and it can be easily removed by using aerosol tar. 2
Car paint scratch repair can be easily done even if the scratch is long and deep. The first step is to wash the affected section with soapy water and dry it. In general, you can use black shoe polish for red color car or white shoe polish for dark color cars to fix the scratch. Sand the damaged area with dry sandpaper until they come to same level. Blow away all dust by using a brush. The next step is to apply body compound to the scratch area and wait until it hardens. After hardening, you can apply primer paint and wait until the area dries up completely. Finally, you can apply the touch-up paint that perfectly suits your car by using special touch-up brush.

Car paint scratch repair can be easy by using the above method but the primer paint will not apply to the cars with enamel paints. Many new cars have the enameled paints and will not mix well with the lacquer based primer paint. Hence, the best way is to take help of some specialist or local auto shop before proceeding. You can just provide them your vehicle identification number that will enable you to get the better idea. For more information visit car rust repair

There is no need to bother, as the car paint scratch repair is not a difficult.
