Hey guys,

Just wanted to get some advice and ideas on how to maybe cover up these scratches I have on the driver side door. I accidentally did them with my keys when opening the door. Any ideas on how to conceal them? One is pretty deep. Thanks!

I carefully used a medium compound to get mine out, followed by a light swirl remover to take the matte finish back out of the plastic. You might also try a scratch removal product for plastic.
