Question
Hello. I have a 2009 Black Grand Cherokee. I was at a fast food drive through and instead of straightening my steering wheel, I kept it turned to the left. My front bumper was severely scratched on the wall. Is there anything I can do to probably buff out the scratch paint look?
Hi Manny,
Basically, if you can feel the scratch by running a fingernail (if your fingernail catches) across it then it won't buff out. If you can't feel it then you can use some rubbing compound and a microfiber towel and try to buff it out by hand.
