Question Getting rid of scratches and scuffs ?

I've got some scuff marks, and scratches on my rear lip.

Is there anything that will restore the finish of the lip or do I have to get it repainted ?


Will those body coloured waxes or scratch removers work ?

I have some of that Colour Match wax and it helps a little.

You can borrow some if you want.

I've tried that GT88 stuff they sold at crappy tire on my Camry when it was fugged.. I was actually surprised it worked pretty well. But it only works on light scratches and scuff marks. It won't work if the scratch goes all the way to the metal (or plastic in your case).
Hope this helps!

Hey man, that stuff I used on the accord coupe to get the 3 footlong key sctratch out but I couldn't remember the name, it's this stuff. You'd think I'd call you to tell you this but in actual fact this quoting thing is dope and I like doing it.

Couldnt find that GT88 stuff at CT so I bought that Turtle wax body coloured stuff with the Chip Stick, It masked some of the very minor scratches, and the scuff, but didnt do much for the deeper ones.

Any other suggestions > ?
