Re: Crayon scratch repair

ok so #1 primer is grey on most cars, #2 they do not look horribly deep, #3 consult a professional detailer through the forums, #4 get some scratchX or swirl X from a local auto parts store, follow directions on bottle and report back, i bet you wont notice the scratches nearly as much after this consult a professional if you still want them mostly gone from the car.it just looks like scratched clear coat, sanding clear coat you get a white slurry or dust(depending on method) so when a scratch happens from something like a tree or blunt object it turns white like it would if you took a peice of sand paper folded it and used the crease to sand, try the products i said and see what it does, worst case is you spend 10$ and you have product just incase of paint transfer or other spot blemish removal your doing.good luck with it

I agree opie, I am not sure why no one has suggested this yet, as the pictures don't look like they go to primer. I believe the SwirlX, etc idea is great, and cheap at that. Maybe the crayons are covering up more than we think, but I say give it a try.

Where are you located? I am sure someone on the forum would lend a hand.

...from being rubbed by a bush when pulling the car out of the garage...

...evergreen bushes next to the driveway...

Hmm... I'm thinking you may need to trim your bush

Re: Crayon scratch repair

I would check out a marker. It can't hurt and it'll be removed anyway if you save up to get it fixed.

On a side note, I am very impressed by your ingenuity. That was a great idea.

Re: Crayon scratch repair

I would wet sand with 2000 and buff . Those scratches don't look to deep in the photos . Take your finger nail and rub it over the scratch . If you don't feel the scratch with your finger nnail you can do this . If you feel the deepness of it , it will need a repaint .
