Awhile back somebody opened up their car door and scratched the paint and primer off the door. I've finally got some free time, and it's really starting to bug me but I'm hoping I can do something myself rather than having to take it in to get it touched up. If anybody has any suggestions on products or techniques to use that would be great. Pictures follow.


P.S. If there is a better place to post this please let me know. I know it's not a stang but this is the only forum I ever frequent (to ogle all of your cars on a daily basis in hoping one day I can afford my own).

try getting a compound and polish out as much as you can. from what it looks your not going to be able to do much with polishing it out, its going to need to be touched up. but clean it up as much as you can with the compound. then go over with a polish.

It looks like you need to have the dents pulled and than someone touch it up.
