Any one have a good idea how to cover these scratches. I'm not even sure how they got there.

See picture below. Look closely and you can see the scratches. Sorry for the poor picture but the MO was so clean the camera kept focusing on the reflection.

The scratches on on the passenger left side door.

The rule of thumb is to go with lightest abrasive first. Many auto detailers use 3M's scratch and swirl remover. I've used it on minor scratches.

Try this web page for auto detailers. I've learned a lot from these guys in the "University" section.

good luck

Gonzo,
Here are a couple of products I have used effectively if the scratch doesn't go deeper than the clear coat.

If the scratch has gone deeper i've used this on my black vehicles with good success. It will require frequent applications however.

Good luck!

Kit Scratchout is good.

How did this work out Gonzo?

Have not tried anything... still trying to thraw out and dig out form this snow! I'll wait until it warms and I'll throw a coat of wax on the too.
