Rule of thumb: If your finger nail can catch on the scratch then its too deep for a detailer to remove. If the scratch is deeper than the color coat - you cant remove it by compounding/polising

Re-paint is the way to fix that or have a touch-up company take care of it.

You can easily paint it yourself as well. All you will need is some 600 grit sand paper, a can of flexible primer, a can of color,and one of clear. Email me if you want detailed instructions. CPaintCars@aol.com
