Rep Power: 391 you might wanna take it to a detailer and see what they can do for it ... it's usually the better-looking, and more cost effective alternative... From your description I can't tell how bad the key mark is but... anyways... getting a quote from a detailer should be free... at least i would hope so... then make ur decision on what to do from there.

Rep Power: 0 IMO, touch up paint doesn't make it look like anything happened to the paint... it just to cover the exposed metal so as to prevent corrosion on the exposed metal...i haven't heard of anyone using touch up and the result is as if nothing happend. if you have used it with success tell me the best was to use it so that my ride would look perfect again!

I have never seen it done well. Another alternative you may try is, see if there is a scratch doctor in your town. I can not explain how he dose it, but he did my buddies suburban for $55. That is every scratch big or small and it looked pretty good.
