So, after having someone who was moving out put a box on the middle of my hood, then drag it accross...plus a kid on a bike raking the side, I am curious as to the best way to take care of scratches.

They don't feel particularly deep, but I see some silver in them (I have a black car). What's the best way to take care of these? Seems like body shops want $100 per scratch, which seems a bit ridiculous to me.

 

Pics will definitely help.

May be able to buff out with a PC Random Orbital and some polish, or may need touch-up paint/wetsand/polish, but can't tell unless we have pics.

 

+1 for pics...

 

useless without pics...if u see the skin...100 bucks to paint isnt bad imo

 

I took some pictures but I can't really tell anything from them as it is such a reflective surface it was difficult to take.

The first one is on the hood, the second is on the side.

 

The Clear Coat will appear white or silver if its scratched --If so a gentle hand buff may fix it
