I have a scratch about a feet two inches on my car. It goes from the side door back to the body. First time owner of a car and I really don't know if buffing the car would fix the problem? Any suggestions? I will post a picture tomorrow if necessary.

it is REQUIRED!post the pic, unless its BRUTAL it can probably be buffed out... know what caused it?

a tree branch fell on my hood and made a huge scratch... 2 ft long...

a little orbital action... what scratch?!

I'll post a pic tomorrow and I don't know what happened. That morning about two weeks ago, I took it to the dealer to get an oil change. Then I dropped it off at my house and left. Later that night I went to dinner with my gf and noticed the scratch when I opened the door for her. I was furious.

if it's just a clearcoat scratch, you can rub it out with scratch x. if it's deeper then that, you'll have to use some touch up paint and then rub it out with scratch x.
