Okay finally it happened.
Last week, I went to Asheville NC to visit Biltmore and after i came back out saw this big a** scratch mark driver side door. I was expecting soon or later, but 2 to 3 inches. I tried to use mcguire scratch remover, but didn't work. I think it's pretty deep. Any suggestion on how to get this repaired. Some one said I need to sand it down..

If you can feel with your fingernail, chances are it will have to be re-painted. If not, find someone with a buffer and they'll knock it out no problem.

I fear the day this happens to my G, hopefully never! I would try to buff it out though. Might not make it perfect but should clean it up a little. That's why I'm afraid to park near anyone...

That looks like it can be polished out.

from the picture it doesnt look bad at all. if you cant see the metal or primer inside those scratches get a orbital buffer from here and take care of it.

Don't freak at all, that can be polished out. You could do it by hand in about 20-30 minutes if you feel like working your *** off - try 2 or 3 passes with scractchx and a foam applicator, or ultimate compound, then swirlx, then a good polishing wax and you should be good to go.

A pro detailer will do something like use a rotary buffer and an aggressive/less aggressive finishing polish compound combo like M105/M205 and then use some sort of very good sealer and then wax on the whole car if you let them, and it will cost you a pretty penny. But it **will** get the scratch gone.

I've moved recently, and I've had lots of things in and out of my car, and I've had an untold number of scratches / rub marks showing up all over the place - most have been coming out pretty well, but some are going to take my buffer and the 2-step process when I get around to it. What I want to know is how to get rid of scratches and marks on the interior plastic without using a heat gun. THOSE are the real bitch.

Test - Contact me. I can likely buff that out for you, but would need to see it. It's a side business for me.

Once when I was driving down a two lane road a car on the opposite side flipped something up off their tire and it hit my front bumper. Much worse scratch than that. I took a Porter Cable 7424XP to it and it came out easily. You should get one - I use mine quite a bit for polishing/waxing.

that definitely looks like it can be polished out. +1 for the PC, it is an awesome tool to use

Sad to see that happen to our G...These people in NC dont give a rat a$$ when they open the doors and scratch your car (basically most are idiots)...I have live in 8 states, 3 countries and by far NC is the worst when it comes to parking next to your car. Get it to a good detailer in your area and they should be able to get the scratch off...

Thank you great feedback and suggestion. I will attempt to try some of you have suggested.

Mine wasn't even a month old and got a small chip in the hood. Whatayagonnado? Crap happens.

You'll get her fixed up.
