scratch

Well, just got back in the country last night and wouldn't you know I scratched my car today. It is right on the left front. I can rub my finger over it and feel the scratch in the paint. I just bought some Magires Scratch X to use. I just did a fast job but I guess maybe it is to deep cause it didn't work. Anybody got a good thing to use to get this scratch off. I plan on using the Scratch X again in the morning and taking more time, but what else can I use.

I found the lipstick thing that comes with the Color Back stuff, I forget who makes it, works temporarily.

Turtle Wax... it works okay, until you wash it.

If it's down to the metal, you can forget it. You can use the product that Mark mentions, but like he said,...it's only temporary.
You can't bring back paint that's not there anymore. If it's not too deep, Any good quality wax or polish should make it nearly invisible.
