If it is in the clear coat, you can buff it out. If it is deeper, and into the base coat. No!

Use touch up paint. After it dries good, buff it to blend it in a little.

Buffing should hopefully help it out on the base coat but thanks all good suggestions

A scratch? LOL


My jeep gets hundreds everytime I wheel.

Probably only 50 or so are through the base coat.

The rest are just dents and white marks

If they're like these, they will buff out. If deeper, touchup paint.
