Cleaning front bumper dings and scratches

[ram28]

Hi everyone,Just came back from a 1000 mile road trip with my dark slate coupe and now I have lots of little dings and scratches on the front bumper. What is the best way of getting these out without ruining the paint? Should I take this to the dealership or any local body shop? This is my first new car (had old crappy car before) so I don't have experience taking care of this kind of thing on my own.

Thanks for any help.

dings and scratches? or bugs and tar?

Dings and scratches. I've already tried cleaning it with a towel and can feel and see that some are dings that go into the body.

dings and scratches? that's really strange unless its from rocks and stuff.. I'm not sure how you'd go about fixing that but a towel won't do the trick. can you try using touch up paint?

I imgaine it's just little rocks, pebbles, from driving on the interstate. I did go to a national park and some of the roads are dirt roads. I was wondering about having someone buff it or use touch up paint like you said. But I've heard about how careful you need to be with the nissan paint. My car is a dark slate.

clean it pretty good and buy a nose mask. use only the bottom part. look really cool and cleans easily.

I've always been against nose masks because some dirt can get caught between the mask and your car, meaning it's just going to rub that dirt back and forth to create more scratches...
