    Help my Delorean was scratched

    I drove my delorean today and came out to find someone had scratched it. I am not sure how to repair the scratch so any advice would be good. When I googled it, this product came up.

    Have any of you used it. How were the results?

    To remove a scratch all you need is some sandpaper and a Scotch Brite pad. The depth of the scratch determines what grit you start with. If it is really bad you start with #80 and work your way back to #120 and finish with a blending pad. You must be very careful to do it straight and stay "with the grain".

    Let’s see some photos of how bad the scratch is. A simple scotchbrite pad may be all that is needed.

    Hopefully its not too deep. I trust no one and assume everyone is a retard when I park my car. So if its not in my line of sight at all times, or parked away from other drivers who "dont care" or near some car bro's who get super insecure and jealous and have to damage what they cant have, i wont even take the car out. I really hope if its too bad, post some photos
