go to a GOOD paint store, they have a buff and a compound with color filler you can use if its not too bad.
Touch up paint is crap usually, its too hard to apply and takes skill for it to look good. check the brushes at the paint store to see how fine they are. good luck . mwest

use a car cover and park your car in a garage at nights

My Pearl White Max is kind of fading to the yellow-ish side so when I buy touchup paint, you can see the different between pure white and faded white

My car never got keyed

I only got 1 scratch on the rear bumper and lots of paint chips in the front.

You have the golden colored Max right? I saw you on Devon once by the closed SuperK. If I remember correctly, your rear bumper is scratched up too right?

That's the whole f*cking thing, I park my car in garage all the time. And when this **** went down, I was at my mom's house, parked outside for 10 min. Come outside and see a nasty f*cking scratch on the entier driver side. I think it was the neighboor who did that ****.
