    Scratch Help

    Hey there everyone, it's been a while since i've visited these forums and unfortunately I had to come back here under some bad circumstances. I was walking towards my car and I noticed some scratches on one of the panels of my car. As you can see from the photos below, it looks pretty bad but I think it looks worse than it actually is. The scratches don't seem to be deep - they feel very light. I'm not sure how this was caused. I'm thinking if it would have been intentional, the scratches would've been much deeper than they are. I have a baby cousin who plays outside and i'm thinking he might have run a toy car across the panel but it also seems too specific of an area that was scratched. My question is, is there a product that might be able to help me out here or am I SOL? I apologize for the dirty car, it just rained. Any help is appreciated.

    your gonna want to have a professional buff this out with a rotary for fastest repair. If you cannot feel it, some/most should come out. If you want to do it yourself, a PC, some pads, and polishes will be needed and some time and patience.

    You may even need some wet-sanding here followed by compound with a rotary. It's in a very visible spot..get some assistance if you've never done this.
