i think i got my scratches for using shitty towels to dry my car. i dont have any nice car washing stuff so i used to be forced to use just plain old towels.

So let me get this straight...

You used a credit card to scrape a badge and emblem adhesive off of a glossy painted surface?

Gotta be honest with you. Some scratches won't come out. The rule is, if you can feel them with your thumbnail.....it ain't comin' out.

I made the same mistake on my first cobalt. They do come out, but I had to have a body shop do it.
