  • How to fix fine line scratches?

    Is there a way? I used 3M's Rubbing Compound, but it looks like it added more fine line scratches.

    Scratches suck! Especially on newer cars (like ours) that have clearcoat on them.
    I think you will need to buff it out the best you can, and try to overlay the scratch with a clearcoat. I fixed a few hairline scratches on my rear quarter panel, but I used a very fine pinpoint-paintbrush dipped in clearcoat, and filled in the scratches. Worked pretty good for a bodywork amateur (me) ;)
