Trying to repair scratches

[jhorton]

I was using Mothers scratch remover today to try and remove a couple surface scratches. The scratches are now gone, but what I noticed is that when I look at the area where the scratches were from certain angles with the light hitting it it now almost appears like it is dented.

I didn`t have to put a whole lot of pressure to get the scratches out. Could it be possible that the scratch remover just made the clear coat in the area appear a lot shinier then the rest of the pannel and then the light causes it to look this way? Or is it possible I could have dented it?

I doubt you dented it.

Isn`t it more likely that whatever struck the panel to cause the scratches could have caused a minor indentation?



I`ve never dented a panel by hand polishing FWIW.
