    Been lurking here for a while and wanted to start by saying this is a great forum with really good info. You people really seem to know your stuff. I want to start getting serious about washing/detailing my car (just placed my first order with PakShak last week and have a Zaino kit sitting in the basement waiting to be used) and was hoping someone could tell me how best to take care of these scratches on my front bumper. The right side (first two pictures) are just paint I think and should buff out hopefully. The one on the left side is a little deeper (last picture). Thanks in advance for any thoughts/suggestions!

    a little lacquer thinner or clay will remove the paint transfer, then polish out as much as you can on the right side.. just be careful on the bumpers as you dont want to burn the paint.



    If you can`t live with the results you get, just spot paint it and blend it.. which is fairly easy to do.

    It looks like a lot of that is down to the bare plastic. It`s gonna need reshot anyhow IMO so all my efforts would be directed towards finding a good shop to do the work. It`s unfortunate, but it won`t be a huge repair...
