Damn door scratch! HELP NEEDED *PICS*

Hey guys last night i was out with some friends and it was VERY windy and one of my friends opened his door and it swung open and hit the side of my door and left this really long scratch mark, im pretty pissed off about it but is there anything that i could buy over the counter that would maybe take it out? or would i just have to get it buffed out, detailers help me with your expertise!!

Hmm, try to buff it out with a power buffer or something of that nature. I'm sure it will come out. Sorry to hear about it though man.

For some reason, I'm having hell trying to find the scratch. So I guess this is a good thing, go for the buffer and you should be alright. But before you do, rub your nail on the scratch, if you can physically feel it.. You might need paint... If not, the buffer will work.

I see it..it doesn't look bad at all. It would come right out with a porter cable buffer and the right polish. You might even be able to do it by hand with over the counter stuff.

Try FLITZ POLISH! I have an 04 6MT laser red and someone hated on my car, keyed my door in a parking lot. Autobody shop quoted me $800 but my boy has 99 Saleen 351 used FLITZ on his scratches gave me a tube of poish and it worked quite well! Use a terry cloth, I use an old sock. Stay away from 3m or McGuire over the counter from Kragen--that $hit doesn't work!

FLITZ is cheap...check it out
