  • How do I fix light *scuff* marks on bumper?

    I bought my car with a few light scuff marks in white on my bumper (near the bottom) and you have to actually get down on ground level to see it (but i know its there and it bothers me)... Is there anyway to get em off my car? It looks like its just on the surface, not into the paint or plastic or anything... I can rub my hand across it and not feel it. I have tried scratch remover and it MAY have helped very little. What can I do? BTW these scuff marks are about 1/2 to 3/4 inch wide and about 6 inches across.

        Any paint cleaner will work just fine. Paint polish will work too, but it's weaker. If you want heavy duty, which I don't recommemend, use rubbing compound.

          I might have some rubbing compound lying around... but I did try Mother's scratch remover I think. Anyways its too damn cold to be messing around with it right now so I guess I will try to find out more about what i can do with this and wait til spring. LOL
