A thunder storm hit out of the blue about half hour ago while i was in my apartment and didnt realize till it was to late and the shelter blew over leaving white paint transfer on the doors and window from the poles of the shelter and possible scatch underneath i havent been able to fully inspect since its still storming and i was just trying to remove the shelter from on top of my truck without any further damage.

My question is will clay, pinnacle scratch and swerl remover and finishing polish with a flex or griot 3" have a good chance of fixing it or will i require different products assuming its just paint transferr. the paint appears to have come off the side of a pole witch leads me to think and hope theres no scratch under it

What you have should work just fine for paint transfer. If any is left, try a heavier cut polish or compound.

I have had good luck with Surbuf pads and a fairly heavy polish like Meg's 105.

this looks to be the worse one and it runs right up along the weatherstrip for the window

couldnt get into the part up along the window becaus i have no hand pads to get into it and the part that goes down the door left some kindof dent in the paint not sure how to describe it you cant really see it in this pic. but all the other scratches came out
