    If it's a scuff of paint, try buffing it out. You can use your favorite car wax on an old cotton t-shirt.

    I've used WD-40 before. Worked like a charm.

    is it just a bit of paint transfer? if so some commercial scratch remover or rubbing compound will take that right off.

    Scratch X or compound, polish, then wax. While you're at it, compound, polish, and wax the whole truck while you have the stuff out. Looks like it could use it.

    Wd40 will take it off, then put a coating of wax on it.

    Relentless front and rear bumpers, Warn M-8000S Winch, Relentless RockSliders, bigger tires, bed cover RTT ... and more big changes in the works.
    Rock sliders and a lift would prevent future door ding damage....and then always park really really close to the driver side of the car that did it.

    If your paint is chipped off and the is primer showing through, there isn't anything you can do, other than use touch up paint to cover it up. There are people that go to dealerships that can airbrush over it. It looks better than touch up, but it won't be perfect. If it's paint from their car that's rubbed on top of your paint, it should buff right out. I would recommend a good detail shop.

    Thanks guys. The coworker definitely heard some words.. It is pouring rain now so when it stops I am gonna give the whole truck a good Polish and wax.. rock sliders and a lift are a great idea but there it a lot of other work I need to do before that. Have a good weekend everyone
