Well what do you know, the second time I park on the street and someone bumps my rear bumper of my lapis blue and leaves a white scuff paint transfer. It doesn't seem to be deep and it kind of comes off when I rub it. What should I use to get it completely off while protecting the paint from too harsh of a chemical.

As little as possible. Most wax has mild abrasive. Start with that and work your way up from there if needed. Meguiar's Mirror Glaze line, from #7, then #9 then #2 (least to more abrasive) is great stuff.

what sasquatch said. i got a scuff a couple months ago from hitting a traffic cone another car dragged into my lane. I actually used a little bit of whitening toothpaste after doing a bit of googling and it worked out pretty well. whatever you do just make sure you clean the area very well before and after

Thanks guys, I wouldn't have thought wax can do the trick. I'll be sure to wash prior to so I don't make any new marks, swirls and such.

I'd stick with products that are meant for paint finishes. Another would be Meguiar's ScratchX. Also good stuff.

A gentle wipe down with a damp cotton terry cloth prior to the scuff removal is all you'll really need.

Thanks for this, going to try Meguiar's on mine. I was just cleaning bug guts off the front of my week old car and the microfiber slipped and my thumb nail put a small scuff on the paint.
