Will Waxing work?
I have a minor scrape on the gas tank area. It's not dented but there's paint from the other car that I see on my car. Would wax work if not/so, what should I do to get it off.

+1 on the scratchx. Use multiple applications.

Hi thanks. Do I need a special cloth to apply scratch-x or does it come with one.

As a less aggressive approach, using a clay bar will more than likely remove paint transfer. If that doesn't work, then I'd resort to the finishing polish as suggested.

i would try clay and if that doesn't work, go with ScratchX, wax afterwards.
