[QUOTE="chris91, post: 1064981, member: 9338"] Another trick of the trade I have learned if you have a nice steady hand and some PERFECTLY matching touch up(NOT the shit you buy from the dealer or vatozone). With a very thin touch up brush(any hobby store will have them, not some cheapo brush that comes with your kids watercolors) take the touch up and apply it into the scratch. After it has dried, repeat applications until its built up above the existing paint quite nicely. Let it dry overnight and then buff it. With the heat produced from the high speed buffer it will roll the paint into the scratch and blend it in. Ive done this on HUNDREDS of cars and if you do it right youll never be able to tell it was scratched. Been doing exterior detailing and touch ups for right around 15 years now and this trick was taught to me by a guy thats been painting for about 30 years. Wish you were local to me, Id hook ya up for free. [/QUOTE]
