Ok, did some searching on this and what are your thoughts? I have some light scratches on my roof above the rear passenger door. Looks as if someone put something up there to open the door and then pulled it off and left some scratches. They aren't deep scratches and I can't feel them but just see them. What should I do? Use some Zymol(I think that is what it is called) on it? I don't have access to a buffer or anything like that so would have to use some elbow grease! It is not a big area. Probably a 12in.X12in. section on the roof.

Thanks
 






Zaino?

Sounds like that's basically all you need.. Just depends.. If they've been there for a while and haven't rusted, then chances are you can just elbow it out with some good wax.

Good luck.
 






Yep, they are recent I believe and there is no rust with them. Just some scratches. I am try some good wax. Thanks
 






Get yourself some 3M Perfect-It III Machine Glaze from your local paint and body supply shop or some Einszett Paint Polish from www.autopia-carcare.com These are my favorite swirl mark removers, and they will actually remove the scratches, not just mask them with fillers. Use a clean 100% cotton towel and work the polish in until it starts to dry, then wipe off the residue.
