Car scratch

Hey people,

I managed to scratch my car on a pole like an idiot. Anyone got any idea how much this could cost to fix? doesn't feel dented, just paint work come off.

unless its black primer under your top coat I'd get some t-cut on that and see if its from the pole

That doesn't look like it's took any of your paint off, more like you took the black paint off the pole. As Ste has said, get some T-CUT on it and see if it gets rid of it.

Alright will give it a blast with some T cut, but ive thoroughly wiped it with washing up liquid and thats the best I can do.

That will cut out, find someone with a DA to polish it out

Fairy liquid is good stuff, but keep that stuff away from your car and leave it to the plates. It also can't cut paint off your car either....

T CUT did very little

I'd try wet sanding it (1500/2000 grit sandpaper) and polishing it back up. It does just look like paint from the pole has been transferred to your bumper. It's worth a try since you can't really make it any worse. Worst case scenario you have to have it resprayed.
