There's a scratch remover they sell all over the place....comes in a toothpaste-like tube. You should be able to find it by asking the clerk at an auto parts store. It works well on minor scratches.....

GS-12 scratch remover, but then you need to wax over it, or use the new Turle wax that color matches and comes with a lipstick type scratch filler for those deep scrathes.

Yep, that's the stuff. Worked pretty well on my trucks paint after a kid on a tricycle scraped up against it....

Is it a permanant fix? I've never really seen the stuff in use. The Ram has a couple smalll scratches that I'd like to hide.

Run your fingernails over the scracthes...if you don't feel the scratches, then the scratches can be polished out.

If they are deeper, then be careful of any product you use as you don't want to dull your area by removing the clearcoat.

Biggest suggestion to you is take it to a detail shop and see what they suggest. Never hurts to ask.

Yeah. I've been down this road before. Of course I'm looking for the something easy.
