X Post: Best way to remove paint scrape from another vehicle?

Another car scraped me in the lot. When I was wiping the area down it looks like the other car's paint will come off (I was able to flake off a little when wiping it down.) It looks like my paint probably has some surface scratches, but if I could somehow get that other paint off it would look a million times better. It's not a large spot so I'd hate to take it to a body shop.

I've had that before. I used the 3M Finesse It compund. I think thats what is called. I followed that with some 3M IHG and a coat of Blitz wax. If you have a PC, it might be easier. I didn't have one at the time, so I did it by hand.

use a very light compound or polish, you might need to use it 2 or 3 times.
In a pinch with a rental car in Italy once, I used Crest toothpaste! Worked great and smelled nice too.

No need for anything abrasive, at least not on the first try. A relatively mild chemical polish, like One Grand Special Touch, will take paint like that off. Has worked for me. Follow with glaze and wax.
