What would you recommend for a light scratch to a IB MINI? It's not deep, it's kinda whiteish surface scratch. Do you guys use sticks, polish or any other stuff?

Regards

I have found GS27 or something like that to be good available at Halfords. Its a white cream rub it over the surface of the scratch and it forms into a white gluey substance. Then just apply wax over the GS27 Application and the scratch will be removed. Its dead simple and works a treat.

Meguiars Scratch X is good stuff as well. Should get the surface sractch out for you.

You can even try toothpaste as a first step. You want as fine an abrasive as possible that will still remove the scratch. If you can feel the scratch with your fingernail, you will not be able to polish it out completly.
