Help with a scratch

[JohnM]

Hello every one new to the boards

As the title say I have a brand new car (less then a month old) and low and behold as I am washing and using a quick detail I see a scratch all ready. After being pissed I continued my detailing and hopped on to ask people who know more then me.

I have some products at my house I have never used compounds of things of that nature. here is a link to the kit I got THE BEST BLACK CAR PAINT CAR CARE KIT POLISH & WAX (http://www.chemicalguys.com/THE_BEST_BLACK_CAR_PAINT_CAR_CARE_KIT_POLISH_WAX_p/kit_991.htm)
Any help would be great. here is a picture of the scratch http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy50/TwiztidZigra/008.jpg

The scratch is not very deep I can barely feel it with my finger nail.
If it comes to this I would want to try it on another car before mine since I have never done anything like that to a car. ( I.E. find an old junker car with a scratch on it)

And thank you for the link

Are you planning on doing this by hand or buffer (rotary or DA)?
There are a lot of YouTube videos on wet sanding. If you aren't comfortable doing that, you can still try to improve the appearance of the scratch with Meguiars M105 then M205.

If you've got a DA you may want to try to hit it with some M105 and 205. That combo worked great on a scratch on my fiancee's RX350.

The scratch looks pretty light, not too deep. I've had great luck in dealing with scratches like that using M105 & M205 and rubbing it out by hand with a MF Towel. We just detailed a 1959 Alpha Romeo and did a few scratches around the door handles using this process.

Where are you at? It might be cheaper to pay someone then trying to purchase everything

That scratch would be super simple to remove

One thanks for the all responds and info. I don't have a buffer but I want to get one down the road. maybe a flex or something along those lines. So for now it would be by hand. I live in South Florida area. in Fort lauderdale area. If I get some time away from doing family stuff today I will try to remove it today
