Default Scratch Removal

My NHBP just got ROCKED, as in, some little **** took a friggin rock to the bumper and carved a large "x" on my bumper. They were even kind enough to leave the rock on my spoiler. Nice people...


What do you suggest for moderately deep scratches? I know that a lot of waxes can provide minimal protection but this sucker is pretty deep. What would it take to get it buffed out/would that even work in my case? My roomate suggested mixing a little wax with the touch up paint.

I tried searching and didn't find too much. No flames please.

wax protects the paint from the elements and a rock ,especially one used by someone, is not included.

repaint is the way to go.

Get a fine tip paintbrush and touch the NHBP up with the NHBP factory paint which comes in cans if you can find it.

I did when I got a small scratch where my key goes in and it worked pretty good, just keep applicating and wiping it off to get if flush with the rest of the paint, otherwise you will be able to see where theres more paint.

Sucks for your car tho, the other day someone tried cooking an egg on my car, well lets just say it didnt go so good cuz he left it there baking in the sun!
