Scratches...
About a week ago I woke up to find the gate to my backyard ajar and scratches on the lip of decklid and passenger side quarterpanel. One scratch goes almost from one side to the other on the decklid; and random shape like & or a treble clef. Cant figure out how to post pics, sorry.
Any suggestions?

Are they just clearcoat scratches?

Thanks for the advice, I'll try Adams.
I could sort of hang my nail, but I'm gonna try buffing first. Any estimate on painting cost? How big of an area would need to be painted?
I uploaded pics to photobucket; pics are from my phone. Not the greatest quality.

Similar thing happened to me, by me. I was pushing the lawn mower with my left hand and drinking a beer with my right; while trying to negotiate around a crepe myrtle. I put a small scratch right behind the drivers door. I left it as a reminder to take more care around the car. Ive since taken to parking at the park across the street when I mow.

pics are to hard to see, I was trying to remove my spoiler a while back and my microfiber I was using as a guide under the knife got stuck and didnt stay with it..causing this to happen.
needless to say I was REALLY REALLY pissed..Dr Colorchip would not work on it because it didnt have enough to bite to stay once you use the solution to clean off the excess. I ended up buffing it out with my Flex 3401 buffer and some Menzerna Power finish and its probably 80% gone..its still there but I blended it in enough that its not very easy to see.
