    I was given a set of golf clubs today.

    When I was putting them in the back seat of my car I saw the bottom of the bag hit the side of my car a bit. I prayed there was no mark but it was dark.

    I get home and I see like a 2 inch scuff mark on my black paint. Not real noticable except for somebody analretentive about their car like me. I tried some aio quickly but its still there. Tried some rubbing compound gently (i hate that stuff) but I still see a bit. The bottom of the bag is all black plastic.

    What should I do or try next? Would rubbing alcohol help? Is that bad for the paint?

    Any ideas? Please help. My car is far from perfect but I can kick myself for not being more careful

    Thanks in advance.

    Once again my paint is black.

    Pics? Hard to say without seeing it. Maybe some Scratch X?

    I wont have pics for a while. I dont think scractx would do if rubbing compund didnt. Its sort of a smudge. I better wait till daylight to view it better. would rubbing alcohol hurt it?

    Definately wait until you can see it in proper lighting, if you haven`t gone thorugh the clear coat you should be able to repair it with progressively finer compounds.

    When you can see it well, a 50/50 mix of isopropyl alcohol, on a MF won`t do any harm. Allow it to dwell, then rub. Repeat.



    Good Luck.
