Exclamation Need help -- on removing Scratches....

Hi..

Just got my 06 lexus Blk Diamond last Dec. My fiancee accidentally put a scratch on the front right bumper when parking the car . She estimated the turn wrongly and rubbed a SUV's rear bumper. Below is 2 pics of how the scratch looks. I would like to know what polish out there would work on scratches like this... I hope i don't have to touch up but if I have to... what would be the best way to do it so there will be minimal visibility of the touch up..


<br><br>


Thank You Guys....

I would start with clay to see if it removes the paint first. I worked on a new Mercedes silver C230 with a nice black paint transfer from a parking pole. I was able to remove all of the paint with the clay, and after polish and wax, the owner was not even able to tell where it was. Just take your time and use lots of detail spray to keep the area lubed.

Good luck,
