Light scratch removal on my civic

[Rob_02cup]

Ive only had the civic a few weeks and already someones scratched it!

Left it in a car park and came back to see around 6 lightish scratches in the front drivers side wing.

Perhaps a parking attendant leaning over the car to see for a ticket?

They dissapear when i run a wet finger over them so im guessing they havn't gone through the lacquer.

Ive taken it to a bodyshop and they've told me it would cost £200 to paint the wing and blend it in to the door.

Is there a chance i could use something to take the scratches out myself?

Its in metallic cosmic grey.

One scratch you can see in the middle and one going along the arch towards the front of the wing, can't really see it tho.

Yeah looks fine mate dont worry,

Get a local of here or detailing world to come and get it out will take about 15-20 mins i would have throught ,depending.

Thanks for the advice, if anyone would remove these scratches they'd get some money for it. Id prefer local though.

Or perhaps a free collection/delivery as im a courier???
