I am so angry (scratch)

This is not my day!! I was just out to wash my car (no rain), I haven`t washed it in a couple days. After I had rinsed the car, guess what? Two scratches on my passanger door! I am SO ANGRY My new car and everything!! I can feel the scratch with my nail, so its pretty deep. Next weekend I am doing some wetsanding!! Oh yeah, the scratch is going away!!

Just had to get it out...thanks

Wow! Sorry to hear about that!
Since it's deep, would you use touch-up paint before wetsanding?
You're getting to use what you learned at that detail class. Unfortunately, it has to be on your car now. Post pics of the process of Scratch-B-Gone.
Not a good start to your weekend....sorry!

Thanks buddy, hope your weekend is better '

Its a bit deep, but not so wide, so I don`t know if touch-up paint is needed. But I will pick some up just to be safe. To bad its mine, but somebody need to be test bunny

I will take lots of pics etc

Bummer! I know how you feel. I'll be interested to see you process to fix it. I'm to big of a wimp to try wet sanding!

I know how you feel. I've had my car 2 months, and there's about 10 of them from people banging it with their door.
