How well can you polish out scuffs?

[rj1986]

Hi All,

Went to tesco this evening, parked on the far side of the car park, nice and far away with no other cars about.

Apparently, this wasn't good enough for some old granny, who decided to park up next to me, and in the process, scuff the rear wheel arch.

Long story short- there's 2x 5 inch long scuffs, and another small scuff where part of the primer is showing.

Now rather than a respray on a small part, is there anything that can cover it up enough for me to stop being angry about it?

Its BMW metallic black.

Thanks in advanced.

Not very well .... or maybe very well ... ?????
.... how long is a piece of string?
It's all going to depend on how bad it is and what sort of improvement you want.
Only on seeing the damage can anybody who knows what may be achievable be able to advise you on what can be done.

If you have some 1500W+D, some decent polish and a mop you should be able to get the most of it out if its not too bad. Polishing wont affect it if there is no paint left though!
