My STi got scratched!

I've been taking care of my car ever since I got it a few months ago. But the cover I was using to cover my car scratched the paint on the side of the car. The lock that locks the cable under the car made a 3 inch scratch on the side door when it was windy although its not very deep its still vissible at close range. Anyone have suggestions to fixing my problem?

Depending on the depth of the scratch, either a mild rubbing compound or a polish. Then wax afterwards.

If you use a rubbing compound, don't press too hard. Just use moderate pressure in circular motions.

www.paintscratch.com has scratch kits, and their color matching is PERFECT (I've used both PSM and WRB, and it was absolutely identical).
